0.85 Ct. Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This rare cushion shape garnet from Ceylon arrives as a private offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, a single, impeccably transparent treasure weighing 0.85 carat. Its compact dimensions of 5.97 by 5.39 by 3.21 millimeters make it ideal for a refined solitaire or a bespoke cluster design that centers any high jewelry creation. True collectors understand that gems of this size and quality are an invitation to distinction, rather than a mere acquisition. The pinkish red hue is vivid and arresting, the color intensity classified as intense, and the stone reveals a depth and complexity that only natural, untreated gems possess. Enhancement is none, so what you see is the original, unaltered beauty carved by geological time, and that authenticity is a defining mark of exclusivity for those who seek rare natural gemstones.

The mixed brilliant cut is where this garnet reveals its most persuasive virtues, and the cutting pattern has been executed to exacting standards to maximize fire and scintillation. The cushion silhouette marries classic proportions with a modern faceting scheme, producing a dance of light that pulls the eye to the gem and holds it there. From the table down through the pavilion, the facets interact with remarkable precision, returning luminous flashes and warm flashes of red and pink as the stone moves. The excellent polish enhances every plane, so light glides across the surface and rebounds with clarity, contributing to an overall brilliance that transforms this garnet into an unmistakable centerpiece. For collectors and designers who prioritize optical performance, this piece stands above ordinary examples, offering the kind of lively brilliance that defines a cabinet quality gem.

Clarity has been assessed as very very slightly included when viewed at eye level, which translates to a purity that is exceptional for garnets of this lively color. These minor inclusions are part of the stone story, microscopic signposts of its natural formation, and they do nothing to detract from the gem's visual impact. Instead, they lend an assurance that the piece is untouched by clarity enhancements, further reinforcing its rarity. When set into an intimate ring, pendant, or bespoke commission, this garnet becomes the focal point of any ensemble, elevating designs with its saturated tone and clear, lively body. Because it is natural, unheated, and untreated, it occupies a rare category in the market where provenance, origin, and condition align to offer both aesthetic delight and long term value.

Owning this cushion pinkish red garnet from The Natural Gemstone Company is an opportunity to join an exclusive circle of patrons who prize authenticity and exceptional craftsmanship.
