1.65 Ct. Mali Garnet from West Africa

This single, exceptional Mali garnet offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a rare find for the collector who seeks a jewel that speaks with quiet authority, an understated declaration of personal power. Hand selected from a limited parcel, this transparent, yellowish green gem displays a tone and presence seldom encountered, an elegant hue born of West African soils and refined by expert cutting. Owning this oval gem signals membership in an exclusive circle of connoisseurs who recognize that true rarity is not merely scarcity, but the right combination of provenance, purity, and personality. We present this stone as a solitary treasure ready to be mounted as a centerpiece, a bespoke commission, or a private accent that enhances an already discerning jewelry collection. Its unique color, its singular availability, and the care taken in every step from sourcing to cutting guarantee that very few will ever enjoy a piece identical to this one.

Measured precisely at 1.65 carats and shaped into an oval with exact dimensions of 7.14 by 6.46 by 4.90 millimeters, this Mali garnet benefits from a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes scintillation while preserving the gem’s natural depth. The cut creates a lively play of light, a finely tuned choreography between pavilion facets and crown facets that produces flashes of light and an even, luminous spread of color across the table. Clarity is notably high, recorded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, so the gem reads as remarkably clean and vivid to the viewer, undistracted by visible blemishes. Color intensity is described as medium light, a delicately poised tone that reads as refined rather than overstated, allowing the stone to convey both versatility in design and a distinctive, memorable presence. The polish is excellent, a mirrorlike finish that enhances brilliance and the feeling of depth within the stone, and importantly, there has been no enhancement, ensuring that what you see is the natural beauty of the gem. These technical attributes combine to create a jewel that balances performance with authenticity, ideal for a refined solitaire ring, a pendant designed to attract the eye, or a pair of bespoke earrings paired with complementary metals and accent stones.

Beyond measurements and grades, this Mali garnet carries an emotional and symbolic weight that resonates with those who wear jewelry as a language of identity. The yellowish green color is not merely decorative, it is a deliberate statement, a symbol of personal power and distinction, a hue that evokes confidence, renewal, and a cultivated sense of style. When set into a custom piece, it becomes a talisman for moments when presence matters, a quiet but unmistakable signifier of taste and intention. Because we maintain a selective selection policy and ethical sourcing standards, this gem is offered only once at this specification, making it an invitation to claim a jewel that few will ever have the opportunity to own. The Natural Gemstone Company stands ready to assist with bespoke mounting options, secure certification, and discreet delivery, lending the same care to the setting and presentation as was invested in sourcing the stone. For the customer who seeks exclusivity, authenticity, and a color that embodies personal authority, this Mali garnet offers a rare chance to possess something both beautiful and singular, a true heirloom of distinct character.
