1.83 Ct. Pinkish Purple Garnet from Tanzania

This transparent 1.83 carat fancy shape pinkish purple garnet measures 7.91 x 6.12 x 4.31 mm, and has been precision cut in a mixed brilliant style to marry sparkle with rich saturation, the clarity is graded very slightly included at eye level which means exceptional visual purity for a natural garnet, the color intensity is intense and the polish is excellent, there has been no enhancement, this combination of weight, dimensions, cut, clarity and untreated status places this gem well above typical commercial garnets that sacrifice color or clarity for size, compared with many market alternatives this stone stands out because it is a rare, transparent example in a pinkish purple hue rather than the more common brownish or orangey tones often found in lower quality material, the mixed brilliant cut maximizes return of light while preserving weight and face up presence, and the very slightly included clarity ensures the gem photographs and performs beautifully in rings and pendants without the need for costly treatments.
