0.69 Ct. Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This is a beautiful transparent 0.69 carat marquise shape purplish pink garnet from Ceylon Sri Lanka, presented by The Natural Gemstone Company. The gem measures 7.78 by 4.09 by 2.80 mm, and its mixed brilliant cut and marquise outline create an elegant face up presentation that maximizes apparent spread relative to its weight. The 0.69 carat weight is significant because it sits just below the 0.70 carat threshold that often influences price breaks in the market, while still offering the visual impact and versatility associated with stones near the seven tenth carat range. For educated buyers, the combination of near three quarters carat weight and a long marquise silhouette means a piece that reads larger in jewelry, allowing for dramatic rings or accent stones in bespoke settings without the jump in cost that can occur at common weight benchmarks.

Clarity is graded very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, so the internal characteristics are minimal and do not detract from the gem’s transparency or brilliance when set. The intense color intensity and excellent polish enhance light return from the mixed brilliant cut, producing strong life and sparkle in face up view. Importantly this garnet has no enhancement, an attribute that increases desirability among connoisseurs who value natural state material, and its Ceylon origin contributes to provenance prestige, as Sri Lanka is historically respected for producing fine pink and purplish garnets with balanced saturation. For collectors and jewelers, the weight combined with untreated status and VVS eye level clarity means favorable rarity metrics and a more stable long term value profile, because per carat pricing typically escalates with cleaner material and documented origins. The Natural Gemstone Company is available to provide further gemological details, high resolution imagery, and guidance on recommended mountings, ensuring that the 0.69 carat marquise purplish pink garnet is selected and showcased to best advantage, whether your priority is fine wearable jewelry or a collectible addition to a curated gem cabinet.
