This transparent 0.85 carat oval green tsavorite garnet presents refined proportions at 6.66 x 5.27 x 3.06 mm, carefully fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut to maximize lively facet play and return of light. The gem exhibits an intense green color, a hallmark of fine tsavorite, and an excellent polish that enhances surface brilliance and tactile finish. Clarity has been evaluated as slightly included at eye level, meaning the stone contains minor inclusions that are consistent with natural garnets but do not materially diminish its transparency or sparkle when set or viewed in typical jewelry. There has been no enhancement, the color is entirely natural, and the stone is documented as originating from East Africa, an established source for premium tsavorite material. These combined attributes, including the precision of the cut and the absence of treatment, place this example at the higher end of market expectations for a stone of this weight and shape.
From an investment perspective this 0.85 carat East African tsavorite from The Natural Gemstone Company carries several favorable indicators for future appreciation. Tsavorite is comparatively rare in the global colored gemstone market, and fine, untreated material with intense color commands a consistent premium among collectors and designers. Size matters in pricing dynamics, and a near one carat gem in a vivid color range is more scarce than smaller sizes, which supports relative price stability and upward pressure as supply tightens. The untreated status and excellent polish increase its desirability for both bespoke jewelry and collectors, and provenance from a reputable supplier aids liquidity by making the stone easier to resell through established trade channels. Prospective buyers should consider securing an independent gemological report to further strengthen marketability, and should view this stone as a long term asset within a diversified collection of natural gemstones. While market conditions can fluctuate, the combination of natural, intense color, superior cut and finish, limited supply from East African deposits, and transparent sourcing through The Natural Gemstone Company make this tsavorite a compelling choice for educated buyers seeking both aesthetic excellence and considered investment potential.
