1.50 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Demantoid Garnet Pair from Namibia

This matched pair of natural Namibian demantoid garnets from The Natural Gemstone Company represents a rare combination of clarity, color, and craftsmanship that stands above many green gemstones on the market, these stones weighing 0.67 and 0.83 carats respectively, each fashioned in a round mixed brilliant cut and measuring 5.61 x 5.59 x 3.15 mm and 5.65 x 5.64 x 3.51 mm. Their yellowish green hue is intense and transparent, with very slightly included clarity at eye level and an excellent polish, which together produce superior brilliance and light performance compared with typical peridot or treated emeralds. Unlike many commercial emeralds that require oiling or other enhancements to improve appearance, these demantoids are completely natural, untreated, and display stable color and sparkle without artificial modification, making them a cleaner, more desirable choice for discerning buyers seeking authenticity and longevity.

When you evaluate durability for everyday jewelry, these demantoid garnets offer a compelling balance of toughness and practical wearability that often outperforms other green gems in real world use. With the inherent hardness of demantoid garnet around the mid-range of the Mohs scale, and with their eye-clean clarity and excellent polish, they resist surface wear and retain a lively appearance over time far better than many included emeralds, which are prone to chipping and require careful handling. Compared to peridot, which can show lesser brilliance and higher susceptibility to surface abrasion, these demantoids deliver more fire and superior cut quality that maintains visual impact in daily wear. For rings and other pieces subjected to knocks, I recommend protective settings such as bezels or secure prongs to maximize longevity, while for earrings and pendants the combination of durable polish, stable untreated color, and very slight inclusions make these stones exceptionally suited for regular use. From a value perspective, this pair offers a rare natural origin and uncompromised quality from Namibia, positioning them as a smarter long-term investment for jewelry that will be worn every day, the mix of natural beauty, durable performance, and unmatched polish makes these demantoid garnets a standout choice available through The Natural Gemstone Company.
