1.20 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from Tanzania

At The Natural Gemstone Company we cherish gemstones that embody history, beauty, and enduring value, and this pear shape tsavorite garnet is a sterling example of that legacy. We present one transparent 1.20 carat pear shape green tsavorite garnet, with dimensions of 6.21 by 6.86 by 3.92 mm, originating from Tanzania, a region that has produced some of the finest green garnets known to collectors and connoisseurs. Tsavorite is a gem with a relatively recent discovery in the arc of gem history, yet it links to ancient traditions of green gemstone admiration, recalling the reverence shown to emeralds and other verdant stones in classical jewelry. This particular gem is entirely natural with no enhancement, its vivid color intensity and excellent polish speak to both the integrity of the material and the skill of the cutter. When you hold it, you sense the continuity of natural forces and human craft meeting to create an object that can be worn, treasured, and passed through generations.

The cutting of this tsavorite is where craftsmanship and optical science converge, producing a jewel that captivates the eye from every angle. Skillfully fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut, the facet arrangement has been selected to maximize sparkle and return light with lively fire and scintillation. The pear shape provides a timeless silhouette that flatters both classic and contemporary settings, drawing attention to the stone as a center of gravity in any design. At 1.20 carats and with precise proportions for a pear form, the stone measures 6.21 by 6.86 by 3.92 mm, dimensions that translate into elegant presence without overwhelming the hand or neckline. The clarity grading is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which means that at normal viewing distance the gem appears clean and free from distractions, while under magnification the natural internal characteristics attest to its authenticity. The excellent polish enhances surface luster, allowing each facet to act like a tiny mirror that intensifies the gem s inner glow and makes it a natural centerpiece in any collection.

Beyond its physical attributes, this tsavorite carries with it a narrative of rarity and timeless appeal that will resonate with those who value tradition and provenance. Green gemstones have long been associated with renewal, prosperity, and enduring beauty, and tsavorite offers a modern chapter in that story by combining a saturated green hue with remarkable brilliance and toughness that surpasses many traditional green stones. Originating from Tanzania, this gem connects to a rich geological heritage, where specific conditions produced vivid chromium or vanadium rich crystals that yield such lively greens. Because this stone has no enhancement, its vivid color intensity is pure, unaltered, and indicative of genuine material quality. For collectors who appreciate history, a tsavorite from Tanzania is a way to own a piece of the earth s narrative, an artifact that reflects both natural history and the longstanding human desire to shape and adorn with beauty.
