1.92 Ct. Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is an art to rarity, and the moment you encounter this 1.92 carat cushion shaped garnet, that art becomes unmistakable. Hand selected by The Natural Gemstone Company, this gem measures 7.99 x 7.54 x 3.94 mm, and presents a purplish red hue that reads as both regal and intimate. The mixed brilliant cut breathes life into each facet, producing scintillation that is at once fiery and refined, while the excellent polish ensures every surface captures and returns light with crystalline clarity. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and this subtle internal character only affirms the gemstone as natural and individual, a tiny signature of origin and formation that would be smoothed away by enhancement. There has been no enhancement, and the garnet originates from Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source celebrated by connoisseurs for producing stones with uncommon depth and personality.

The weight of 1.92 carat elevates this garnet from attractive to exceptional, in a manner that is both tangible and economic. In the world of gemstones, weight is not merely a number, it is the threshold between rarity and abundance, and the difference between ordinary and heirloom. Approaching two carats, this stone occupies a sweet spot where per carat value rises significantly due to scarcity of purplish red garnets of such clean color and generous dimensions. The size allows the mixed brilliant cutting scheme to play its full role, expanding the visual presence of the stone while preserving optimal light return. The result is a gem that reads larger than its carat weight might suggest for lesser quality stones, offering a commanding table, generous crown depth, and a pavilion that maximizes brilliance. When combined with vivid color intensity and an excellent polish, the near two carat weight becomes the defining trait that underwrites market desirability, collector interest, and long term value.

Owning this garnet is a statement, reserved for those who understand that true luxury is rooted in authenticity and provenance. This is a stone that translates effortlessly into a solitaire ring, an elegant pendant, or an intimate cocktail piece, each setting becoming a stage for its lucid color and balanced proportions. The cushion shape lends a softer silhouette, while the measured depth of 3.94 mm retains a jewel like presence for everyday wear or ceremonial display. Because it is untreated, and because its origin and qualities have been assessed by the specialists at The Natural Gemstone Company, this garnet offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also the assurance of unaltered natural beauty, a quality that discerning collectors prize above all. To wear or to invest in such a gem is to align oneself with a refined tradition, a collector sensibility that values the rare moment when color, cut, clarity, and weight converge to form something memorable and singular. For those seeking a piece that announces taste without ostentation, this purplish red, 1.92 carat cushion garnet from Ceylon is an achievement to claim, a reflection of cultivated preference and an elegant addition to any curated collection.
