This 1.75 carat oval pink Malaya garnet from Tanzania is a superb example of a natural, untreated fancy colored gemstone offered by The Natural Gemstone Company. The stone measures 7.97 by 6.27 by 4.55 mm, and it is fashioned in an oval shape with a mixed brilliant cut that balances faceting for both fire and scintillation. Transparency is excellent, and the clarity grade has been assessed as very very slightly included at eye level, meaning inclusions are minimal and do not detract from face up beauty. Color intensity is classified as intense, showing evenly distributed pink tones that are characteristic of fine Malaya garnets from Tanzanian deposits, and the polish is excellent which enhances surface luster and optical performance. There has been no enhancement, the gem is natural and untreated, and this absence of treatments is an important factor for collectors and connoisseurs who value long term stability and provenance.
For an educated buyer seeking a generational heirloom, this Tanzanian Malaya garnet offers a combination of rarity, durability, and aesthetic longevity that makes it ideal for a family legacy piece. Garnet species are known for a hardness that averages approximately seven to seven and a half on the Mohs scale, providing good wearability in rings and everyday jewelry when set with proper protection, and the gemological qualities of this stone support repeated wear without loss of character. The natural, intense pink color will not fade because there are no heat or color treatments to reverse, and the mixed brilliant cut maximizes light return so the gem retains its lively appearance over decades. The size of 1.75 carat is substantial enough to serve as a memorable center stone and versatile enough to be reset in different styles by future generations. When you select this gem through The Natural Gemstone Company you receive documented attributes, careful handling, and the confidence that this piece has the material qualities collectors and families seek in an heirloom.
