If you have been searching for a single remarkable gemstone that ends the quest for the perfect engagement center stone or a rare addition to a curated collection, this 1.39 carat oval red garnet from Ceylon Sri Lanka is the answer you have been looking for. Transparent and lively, its measurements of 7.13 x 6.16 x 4.24 mm have been expertly fashioned into a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes sparkle and depth, while an excellent polish gives each facet the crispness needed to dance with light. This garnet is eye clean when evaluated at eye level, a clarity grade that means the rich, vivid color intensity is uninterrupted by visible inclusions, allowing the stone to present an immediate visual impact that reads as both luxurious and honest. At The Natural Gemstone Company we carefully select only stones that combine aesthetic power with natural integrity, and this garnet is entirely unenhanced, carrying the authentic color and character that connoisseurs prize.

Beyond the first impression, this garnet is a gem that will continue to captivate as years pass, because its beauty is anchored in natural stability and thoughtful cutting. The mixed brilliant cut creates a lively balance between fire and depth, producing flashes of warm red and subtle flashes of magenta as the stone moves, so everyday light and evening illumination both reveal different facets of its personality. Because the gem has not been treated or enhanced, its color will remain true and unaltered over time with normal wear, and the excellent polish ensures that the surface will hold its mirror like quality until it is given only the gentle maintenance all fine jewelry deserves. For an engagement ring this stone will sit as an emotional and visual focal point, offering a distinctive alternative to more common center stones while providing a warmth and richness that reads as intimate and timeless. For collectors seeking provenance and purity, its Ceylon origin adds a story of place and geological character, a narrative that pairs perfectly with the physical beauty you see.
