1.45 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from East Africa

This 1.45 carat oval green tsavorite garnet presents precise proportions and meticulous cutting, dimensions 7.87 x 6.65 x 3.18 mm, mixed brilliant cut, transparency and an eye clean clarity grade evaluated at eye level, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish. The mixed brilliant execution pairs a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown with carefully oriented pavilion facets to combine strong face up scintillation and guided internal light return, the oval outline preserved to minimize extinction and to create consistent color saturation across the table. The pavilion depth of approximately 44 percent works in concert with the crown profile to balance brilliance and depth, the facet junctions exhibiting crisp meeting lines that enhance light performance, and the well executed girdle and proportional table allow secure settings while maintaining optimal optical dynamics. No enhancement has been applied to this stone, the lack of treatments confirming that the intense saturated green is wholly natural and stable, which is an important technical distinction for connoisseurs and for investment grade considerations.

Origin from East Africa confers significant value for both technical and market reasons, East African tsavorites are formed in rare, high grade metamorphic environments that stabilize chromium and vanadium trace elements, these specific trace elements are responsible for the vivid, pure green hues that distinguish tsavorite from other green gemstones. Geological rarity in the Kenyan and Tanzanian belts limits production to pockets of high quality material, provenance from this region therefore elevates rarity and desirability, and documented origin supports price premiums among collectors and designers who prioritize natural, untreated stones. From a craftsmanship perspective, cutters who specialize in East African tsavorites typically work to preserve color saturation while maximizing brilliance, and this specimen demonstrates that approach by maintaining intense face up color without sacrificing light return. The Natural Gemstone Company offers this gem with full disclosure of its technical attributes and origin, making it suitable for high end bespoke jewellery projects, investment portfolios, or collectors seeking a natural, untreated tsavorite with superior cutting, consistent clarity, and provenance that adds demonstrable market value.
