At The Natural Gemstone Company we present a singular example of rhodolite garnet that embodies refined taste and undeniable presence, a transparent cushion shape gem weighing 2.85 carat, offering a scale of elegance that is increasingly rare in today’s market. This purplish pink rhodolite, cut with a mixed brilliant arrangement, measures 8.61 by 8.59 by 4.48 mm, and its vivid color intensity is complemented by an excellent polish that allows each facet to sing with depth and fire. The clarity is graded very very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means the stone reads clean to the eye while retaining natural character. Enhanced by careful heat treatment and originating from the renowned deposits of Tanzania, this gem blends provenance and expert lapidary work, producing a jewel that is both beautiful and responsibly sourced.
The true distinction of this gem rests with its weight, 2.85 carat, a threshold that elevates its desirability and market value beyond mere size. In rhodolite garnet, fine color and clarity of this quality become markedly more uncommon as carat weight increases, and a near three carat cushion delivers an impressive face up that transforms any setting into a statement of achievement. Weight is not simply a number, it governs the gem’s brilliance, its light return, and its ability to dominate a composition with grace rather than force. For collectors and connoisseurs, a 2.85 carat rhodolite represents a sweet spot where rarity and wearability meet, offering substantial presence without compromising comfort for everyday wear. From a valuation perspective, larger, high quality stones command a premium per carat, making this gem an intelligent purchase for those who appreciate assets that are both heirloom worthy and emotionally resonant. Whether set as a solitary ring, a bespoke pendant, or an intimate study in contrast with diamonds, this cushion shaped purplish pink rhodolite garnet from Tanzania stands as an emblem of refined acquisition, and our team at The Natural Gemstone Company is pleased to assist you in bringing this exceptional gem into your collection.
