1.78 Ct. Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you are searching for the perfect engagement ring center or a rare gemstone to anchor a collector's cabinet, this transparent 1.78 carat radiant shape red garnet is the answer that ends your search. Mined in Ceylon, Sri Lanka, this garnet measures 8.10 by 6.24 by 3.46 millimeters, showing a balanced presence that sits beautifully on a finger or within a bespoke pendant. The radiant cut was chosen to maximize its vivid color intensity and internal sparkle, while the excellent polish brings a deep, luminous face up appearance. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is very very slightly included, which means the stone maintains an open, clean look to the naked eye while retaining the character that makes natural gems so precious. With no enhancement of any kind, this garnet offers purity and authenticity, a natural statement piece that answers the demand for integrity and beauty in one exceptional gem, and it arrives to you through The Natural Gemstone Company with full attention to provenance and care.

The journey of this garnet begins in the fertile alluvial fields of Ceylon, where experienced, local miners recover rough crystals with an instinct honed over generations. Each rough is hand sorted for color and clarity, then sent to cutters who study the crystal form before laying out the radiant design that best preserves weight and color saturation. During cutting the cutter conserved the clean window into the gem, carving facets that step light through the stone while honoring its 1.78 carat weight. After cutting and polishing, the gem was subjected to meticulous inspection, and the finding of very very slightly included clarity evaluated at eye level reassured our gemologists that the piece would wear with brilliance and confidence. From the Sri Lankan workshops the garnet traveled through secure channels to The Natural Gemstone Company where we photographed, measured, and prepared it for clients seeking a centerpiece that combines rarity, natural origins, and wearability. If you seek an engagement ring that will be both bold and timeless, or a collector gem that speaks of place and craft, this radiant red garnet answers that need with natural color, precise cut, and honest provenance.
