This beautiful transparent 1.02 carat emerald cut green grossular garnet measures 6.84 x 5.82 x 3.69 mm, and it presents an elegant balance of size and classic geometry. The emerald cut, with its step facets and broad table, emphasizes the stone s innate transparency and gives a refined, architectural face up appearance. Graded as slightly included at eye level, the inclusions are present but do not interrupt the garnet s overall clarity or detract from its light color intensity. The polish is excellent, which optimizes surface luster and allows the green tones to read cleanly under both daylight and artificial lighting. There has been no enhancement to this grossular garnet, a factor that is important to discriminating buyers since an unenhanced natural origin preserves both integrity and long term value. As a member of the grossular garnet family, this gem offers good durability for wearable pieces, with Mohs hardness in the broad grossular range that supports daily wear with appropriate care.
Provenance is Tanzania, a region historically important to East African gem production, and this origin adds provenance and story to the gem that collectors and connoisseurs value. Grossular garnets in green hues have a long tradition in jewelry and ornamentation, where similar stones were prized as protective amulets, exchange tokens, and focal stones in signet rings and pendants. For the educated buyer, this piece stands out because it combines natural, unenhanced material, a precise emerald cut that showcases color rather than masking it, and dimensions that are versatile for rings or pendants. The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to offer this stone with transparent grading information, known origin, and a clear condition report, all of which are key attributes when assessing provenance, rarity, and potential for custom settings. If you are seeking a green grossular garnet that blends heritage, reliable gemological characteristics, and everyday practicality, this 1.02 carat emerald cut gem represents a well documented and attractive option.
