5.12 Ct. Spessartite Garnet from Brazil

This 5.12 carat oval spessartite garnet presents technical excellence in both material and cutting, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company. The stone measures 10.56 by 8.08 by 6.39 millimeters, yielding balanced oval proportions and a calculated depth of approximately 68.6 percent, a profile that optimizes color saturation while maintaining lively light return. The mixed brilliant cut combines a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown with precision step or modified pavilion facetting, a deliberate choice that maximizes scintillation across the table and crown, while the pavilion geometry deepens and concentrates the vivid orange red body color characteristic of fine Brazilian spessartite. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included at eye level, indicating that inclusions are minor and do not disrupt overall transparency or light performance, and the excellent polish produces crisp facet junctions and mirror like facet surfaces that enhance both brilliance and luster. No enhancement has been applied, so the gem displays its natural color and optical properties straight from the original material origin, Brazil.

For custom jewelry applications this oval spessartite is particularly well suited due to its size and shape, and because its proportions lend themselves to a variety of design solutions. The dimensions work well for classic solitaire settings where the elongated oval silhouette provides visual presence on a finger, or for three stone designs where the central oval balances rectangular or tapered side stones. Its substantial table and mixed brilliant crown encourage open settings such as prong or low bezel mounts that allow strong light ingress, while the depth and pavilion faceting support halo designs that benefit from concentrated color and perimeter sparkle. Because the clarity is very very slightly included and the polish is excellent, precision bezel work and pave surroundings will retain the stone integrity without obscuring brilliance, and the natural, vivid color intensity makes it an ideal candidate for warm white gold or rose gold settings that complement its orange red tone. Offered by The Natural Gemstone Company this single, untreated, well proportioned oval spessartite garnet is a strong technical choice for bespoke pieces where cutting quality, natural color, and secure setting compatibility are priorities.
