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

This matched pair consists of two transparent red garnets weighing 0.92 carats and 0.93 carats, each precision cut in a straight baguette profile. The stones measure 7.98 by 4.00 by 2.68 millimeters and 8.05 by 3.97 by 2.48 millimeters, the dimensional variation limited to 0.07 millimeters in length, 0.03 millimeters in width, and 0.20 millimeters in depth. The faceting follows a classic step cut geometry, with parallel crown and pavilion facets that emphasize linear light return and color saturation. Clarity is evaluated as eye clean at normal viewing distance, allowing unobstructed transmission of the vivid red hue. No enhancement has been applied, and the material is natural garnet from Ceylon, Sri Lanka. The polish is excellent, producing crisp facet junctions and a flat, reflective table plane that supports high contrast between facet planes, and the straight baguette silhouette offers predictable optical behavior for precision settings.

From a design and craftsmanship perspective these stones are ideal for bespoke applications where matched symmetry and tonal uniformity are paramount. The minimal weight difference and near identical proportions make them suitable as complementary elements in paired ring shoulders, twin pendant drops, bar set earrings, and precision channel or flush settings where exact alignment is required. The step cut faceting and excellent polish facilitate tight bezels and low profile settings for everyday wear, while the vivid color intensity supports both warm yellow gold metal frameworks and cool white metal accents for contrasting visual impact. The Natural Gemstone Company can collaborate on custom proposals that exploit the linear geometry, including linked east west orientations, graduated bar compositions, and multi stone clusters that use these baguettes as directional anchors. For clients who value technical exactness, our recommendations include metal tolerances for channel grooves and bezel walls, and prototyping options to verify seat alignment prior to final fabrication, ensuring these Ceylon garnets are integrated with precision and aesthetic harmony.
