1.34 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from East Africa

This listing describes one transparent 1.34 carat pear shape green tsavorite garnet, dimensions 8.44 x 5.83 x 4.27 mm, mixed brilliant cut, clarity grade very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, vivid color intensity, and excellent polish. The stone is natural, with no enhancement, and originates from East Africa. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish maximize light return and surface resilience, producing a lively face up appearance while minimizing the visibility of minor internal characteristics. Eye level clarity described as very very slightly included indicates the gem is effectively eye clean for most settings, reducing focal points where wear could become visually apparent over time.

Tsavorite garnet exhibits a hardness of approximately 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, combined with the garnet group characteristic of lacking true cleavage, which together provide a practical balance of scratch resistance and structural integrity for daily wear. The absence of cleavage planes means the stone is less prone to splitting from directional impacts, and the well executed polish reduces micro abrasions during normal use. For daily jewelry such as rings and pendants, secure settings with protective elements at the pear point, for example a bezel or closely set prongs, will enhance long term durability. Routine care is straightforward, warm soapy water and a soft brush will maintain surface luster, and periodic professional inspection of the setting will address any loosening before it risks damage. This natural East African tsavorite garnet from The Natural Gemstone Company combines robust physical properties, professional cutting, and eye level clarity, making it a strong candidate for pieces intended for everyday wear while delivering enduring color and brilliance.
