3.37 Ct. Garnet from Tanzania

When you are looking for a single gemstone that ends a search, whether you are crafting the perfect engagement ring or expanding a curated collection, this 3.37 carat purplish red garnet answers that need with confidence, and The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to present it to you. Many buyers want a gem that combines presence, lasting beauty, and a provenance that matters, and this cushion shape garnet delivers on all three counts. Its generous weight gives it a physical and visual significance that smaller stones cannot match, and that added weight brings with it both rarity and an immediate sense of value. If your priority is a stone that reads as important the moment it is viewed, this garnet is tailored to that desire.

A closer look at the stone makes the appeal clear. This transparent garnet weighs 3.37 carat, a size that sits well above the common offerings in many markets, and at face up viewing it measures 9.68 by 7.16 by 5.92 millimeters, dimensions that translate into a strong presence in any mounting. The mixed brilliant cut has been chosen to maximize brilliance and light return while preserving weight, and the excellent polish amplifies mirror like reflections across the pavilion and crown. At eye level the clarity is graded eye clean, which means an unobstructed view into the deep, intense color that this garnet displays. The combination of generous carat weight, precise cutting, and exceptional finish creates a fire and depth of color that markedly increases perceived value and desirability.

Weight is not just a number, it is the factor that moves a gem from pretty to prized, and for garnets the premium for larger, eye clean, intensely colored examples can be significant. A 3.37 carat garnet is rare in this quality bracket, and collectors and discerning buyers pay a premium for stones that combine size with purity of color and clarity. Origin plays into that equation as well, and this garnet comes from Tanzania, a source known for producing garnets with distinctive and saturated hues. The stone has been heat treated, a commonly accepted and stable enhancement that intensifies and stabilizes color, and this treatment has been fully disclosed. Because larger garnets that are eye clean are less common in nature, the combination of weight, cut, and finish on this piece means it will hold its appeal and its market standing over time, making it a smart choice for both investment minded collectors and for someone seeking a once in a lifetime center stone.

When you imagine this garnet set as the nucleus of a bespoke ring, pendant, or heirloom piece, its weight informs design decisions in a way that ensures presence without overpowering refinement. A simple solitaire setting will allow the 3.37 carat cushion to read large and luminous, while a delicate halo will amplify its face up size and enhance contrast for even deeper visual impact. For everyday wear we recommend a protective setting that minimizes exposure to knocks and abrasion, and routine cleaning with warm soapy water will keep its polish and sparkle at peak performance. At The Natural Gemstone Company we can assist with setting recommendations, bespoke mounting, and certification options to match your needs. Your search for a meaningful, rare, and beautifully balanced garnet can end here, with this Tanzanian purplish red garnet that combines substantial weight, eye clean clarity, intense color, and expert cutting into a single consummate gem.
