2.40 Ct. Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This exquisite transparent red garnet is a rare offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, a 2.40 carat trillion shape gem with precise dimensions of 8.79 x 8.76 x 4.10 mm, a clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, vivid color intensity, and an excellent polish. The trillion cut has been masterfully executed to maximize face up brilliance, creating a lively play of light across its triangular facets, and its transparency allows the depth of its red to glow from within. No enhancement has been applied to this stone, and its origin is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a provenance that gives this garnet an added layer of desirability for collectors and connoisseurs who value natural, untreated gemstones. This gem is offered in strictly limited quantities, a singular opportunity to own an immaculate example of Ceylon garnet, reserved for those who seek distinction and refined taste.

When comparing hue and tone to garnets and red gemstones from other famed sources, this Ceylon specimen stands apart in its balanced warmth and clarity. Compared to Mozambican pyrope garnets, which often carry a richer purplish bias and a heavier, more saturated tone, this stone presents a brighter, clearer red that leans toward pure red rather than deep wine. Compared to rhodolite from Tanzania, noted for its pronounced purplish pink undertones, this Ceylon garnet shows a truer red with a subtle warmth that reads as both classic and modern. Compared to historical Bohemian garnets, which tend to show brownish undertones under varied light, this gem remains remarkably lively and free of the brown bias, preserving a fresher, more vibrant silhouette. Even beside rubies from legendary locales, which can exhibit an electric pigeon blood red or a delicate pinkish red, this garnet offers an independent and noble character, combining the richness of deep red with a clarity and brightness that is distinct to fine Sri Lankan material.

The combination of precise trillion cutting, a clean eye level clarity, vivid color intensity, and absolute lack of enhancement makes this gem a prized choice for bespoke jewelry and for discerning collectors who understand the rarity of untreated, beautifully cut Ceylon garnet. At 2.40 carat, it is substantial enough to anchor a signature ring, a refined pendant, or a unique commission piece, and its compact yet striking dimensions allow jewelers to design with both presence and elegance in mind. Because this garnet is supplied directly through The Natural Gemstone Company, provenance and careful handling are guaranteed, and opportunities to acquire such a balanced and honest Ceylon stone are exceptionally rare. For those who appreciate ownership of something truly individual, this piece represents an invitation to join a small circle of collectors who value natural beauty, enduring color, and the quiet prestige of a gemstone whose story begins in the storied soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka.
