This transparent 1.58 carat oval shape green tsavorite garnet from East Africa is a rare and compelling specimen, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company. Measuring 8.34 by 6.73 by 3.23 millimeters, the stone presents an ideal table to depth ratio for an oval that balances face up presence with remarkable brilliance. The mixed brilliant cut has been executed to emphasize both sparkle and color saturation, allowing light to return with lively scintillation while preserving the gem's deep hue. Color intensity is classified as intense, a vivid pure green produced by chromium and vanadium trace elements that differentiate tsavorite from other green gems. Clarity has been evaluated at eye level as very very slightly included, which in practical terms means the gem is essentially eye clean with only minute internal characteristics visible under magnification, and this combination of high clarity and intense color significantly enhances the stone's desirability. The polish is excellent, contributing to superior light performance and a smooth, reflective surface, and importantly, there has been no enhancement applied, which preserves the natural rarity and value of this tsavorite.
Beyond the technical virtues, this garnet carries a romantic narrative inspired by its lush green tone and transparent clarity, a narrative we are proud to share at The Natural Gemstone Company. Imagine a promise made beneath a canopy of ancient trees, the green of new leaves mirrored in the stone's depth, a promise kept as clearly as the gem's eye level clarity. The mixed brilliant facets play like sunlight through branches, each facet catching a memory, and the oval shape evokes the timelessness of a locket or the curve of a ring that will be worn close to the heart. For an educated buyer seeking intrinsic value, this tsavorite offers geological provenance from East Africa, a known source for the finest material, along with ethical transparency, no heat or chemical treatments, and gemological attributes that support long term appreciation. Whether set as a solitary center stone or paired in an elegant bespoke design, this 1.58 carat tsavorite garnet is a durable, luminous, and emotionally resonant choice, combining scientific merit with a romantic story that will be told each time the gem catches the light.
