1.77 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Garnet Pair from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This remarkable pair of oval red garnets is a rare find, presented exclusively by The Natural Gemstone Company, and crafted for collectors and connoisseurs who seek something truly singular. One gem weighs 0.85 carats, the other 0.92 carats, and each is cut in a flattering oval silhouette that flatters the hand and the ear alike. The smaller gem measures 7.16 by 5.11 by 3.10 millimeters, and the companion gem measures 7.12 by 5.10 by 3.10 millimeters, proportions that make them exceptionally well matched for paired settings, while retaining an organic individuality that bespoke lovers will appreciate. Each stone is a mixed brilliant cut, allowing for scintillating flashes from the crown and a deep, velvety glow from the pavilion, the kind of optical performance that only the finest hand cutting can achieve. Clarity is graded as eye clean at eye level, the polish is excellent, and the color intensity is intense, unfaded, and completely natural, with no enhancement. Origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source celebrated for producing garnets with refined tone and saturation, and availability is extremely limited, which is precisely why these garnets are offered as an opportunity to join an exclusive circle of owners.

When you hold these garnets up to the light, you will notice how the rich red color shifts subtly with movement, revealing warm garnet reds and flashes of deeper cranberry when viewed from different angles. The mixed brilliant cut enhances this play of light, creating a lively scintillation on the table and a velvety depth below the surface, an effect that translates beautifully in motion and in stillness. Because they are eye clean, the gems present a pure field of color with no visible inclusions to distract from the intensity and clarity, which is a significant advantage for bridal jewelry where perfection and presence are paramount. The combination of brilliant luster and saturated color creates an emotional and visual impact that is both immediate and enduring, making these garnets ideal for those who desire a passionate alternative to more traditional stones, while preserving an air of classic elegance.

These garnets lend themselves to exquisite paired settings, and with thoughtful design they can become the signature elements of a bespoke bridal set, or the centerpiece of companion engagement and wedding jewelry. For earrings, consider a refined pair of stud settings that celebrate symmetry, each gem embraced by a minimal prong setting in platinum or 18 karat white gold to emphasize brilliance, or in 18 karat yellow or rose gold to warm and deepen the red. A halo of small white diamonds will amplify sparkle and create a luxurious contrast, while a bezel setting will offer a sleek contemporary profile and secure protection for everyday wear. For rings, these stones are ideal for a matched two stone ring, set vertically to elongate the finger and echo the intimacy of a companion piece, or placed as side stones to flank a center gem in a three stone bridal design. They also work beautifully as the centerpieces of a delicate engagement ring for someone seeking a unique and romantic alternative, with the slightly different weights and near identical dimensions lending themselves to asymmetric, artistic settings that feel intentional and curated.

Ownership of this pair is a statement of discernment, because such pristine, intensely colored garnets from Ceylon, with no enhancement and an excellent polish, are seldom available together at this calibre. The Natural Gemstone Company offers bespoke design consultations to ensure that your earrings or bridal rings are crafted to complement skin tone, metal preference, and personal style, guiding you through choices such as prong count, halo versus bezel, and coordinating accents so that the final piece is as rare as the stones themselves. Each commission is treated as a private atelier project, with meticulous attention to proportion and balance, ensuring the finished jewelry reads as a singular work of art rather than an off the shelf item. If you are ready to claim a pair that will never be replicated, we invite you to connect with The Natural Gemstone Company, where limited availability meets timeless craftsmanship, and where ownership means belonging to an elite circle who appreciate the quiet power of a truly exceptional gemstone.
