Deep within the heart of Namibia, where the Earth has patiently crafted its treasures over millennia, lies the origin of our exquisite green demantoid garnet. This gem is the product of nature's most profound artistry, formed through ancient geological processes only Mother Earth understands. Our journey with the demantoid garnet begins in the rich Namibian lands, where expert miners delicately extract these gems from their natural environments. Each retrieval is characterized by an appreciation for both the land and its storied past. Guided by respect and sustainability, The Natural Gemstone Company strives to leave the landscapes much as they were found, believing that the stories tied to each stone deserve to be told and preserved for future generations.
The extracted raw stone undergoes the skilled hands of master artisans, who recognize the potential resting within each rough gem. Through precise cutting and expert shaping, this demantoid garnet is transformed into a stunning transparent 1.04 carat round gemstone, measuring 6.02 x 6.03 x 4.40 mm. Its mixed brilliant cut is a result of a careful and intentional process, created to enhance the stone's natural beauty and to emphasize its remarkable optical clarity. Slightly included and evaluated at eye level, the demantoid's clarity becomes a window, offering a glimpse into the distinctive characteristics formed by ages past. The intense green color intensity is beautifully pronounced, resonating with the lush Namibian landscapes it calls home. The polish it receives is deemed excellent, permitting light to dance across every facet creating a vibrant spectacle.
Once completed, this splendid gem finds itself embodying characteristics unique enough to stand out in the world of gemstones. Whereas garnets are commonly rated between 6.5 and 7.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness, our demantoid garnet sits comfortably within this range. This strength not only ensures durability but also promises versatility in both daily wear and cherished occasions. The captivating green hue, coupled with its durability, captures the attention and admiration of gem enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike. These revered traits secure its place among the exceptional collections offered by The Natural Gemstone Company.
In its final form, this demantoid garnet represents more than just a piece of jewelry. It captures a narrative that begins in Namibia's untouched landscapes and winds through the expert craftsmanship of talented artisans. It signifies an unparalleled connection to a land and a moment in time, one part of a larger story that the wearer can carry forward, enriching their own personal journey.
