If you are searching for a show stopping center stone that combines warm personality with exceptional light performance, this transparent 5.24 carat oval shaped hessonite garnet from Madagascar is the ideal solution. Its rich reddish orange hue and intense color intensity immediately meet the desire for a gemstone that commands attention, while the oval proportions of 11.52 by 9.41 by 6.54 millimeters offer a flattering presence for both solitaire and halo settings. Cut to a mixed brilliant style, the pavilion and crown facets are balanced to optimize light return, creating lively scintillation and a series of bright flashes that dance across the surface as the stone moves. The mixed brilliant cut leverages a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown to increase sparkle and a carefully faceted pavilion to control depth and brilliance, so the gem shows vibrant internal fire without sacrificing the warm body color that makes hessonite unique. With a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level, and an excellent polish, this gemstone presents a clean visual field and crisp facet junctions that intensify reflection and sparkle, and because it is natural and not enhanced, its beauty is authentic and stable.
