1.74 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from East Africa

One beautiful transparent 1.74 carat emerald cut shape green tsavorite garnet rests at the heart of an exclusive offering from The Natural Gemstone Company, a gem that announces itself with quiet confidence and unmistakable scarcity. Cut to precise proportions measuring 8.28 x 5.41 x 4.11 mm, this stone has been selected for collectors and connoisseurs who prize integrity and natural beauty, it is an object for an elite few who understand that true rarity is measured not only by size, but by purity of color, absence of enhancement, and provenance. The emerald cut elongates the silhouette of this tsavorite, creating a stately profile that reads as both classic and modern, a canvas for its vivid green to breathe and glow. Owning this gem signals membership in a small circle of discerning patrons who value original East African tsavorite, untouched by treatments, each facet a testament to the rarity of unenhanced stones of this caliber.

The gemological attributes of this tsavorite are the reasons it stands apart, it is graded very slightly included at eye level which in practice means the stone presents as effectively clean and transparent to the unaided eye, with minor internal characteristics that add natural origin and authenticity without distracting from the visual impact. The color intensity is vivid, a saturated green that lives between the deep emerald of fine gemstones and the fresh verdancy of new leaves, and the polish is excellent, giving every facet a mirror like finish that amplifies internal reflection. Origin in East Africa connects this gem to a storied geological source known for producing the finest tsavorites globally, a provenance that further enhances desirability for collectors. The absence of enhancement means that what you see is the original character of the stone, a raw and true color and clarity profile that is increasingly rare in the market, a quality that The Natural Gemstone Company protects and presents with confidence.

How this tsavorite responds to light reveals its temper and soul, in bright daylight under open sky the stone reveals its most honest personality, broad, saturated planes of green with lively internal reflections that emphasize tone uniformity and depth, the emerald cut allows long flashes of vivid color to run through the table and step facets, giving a composed, regal presence. In direct sunlight the gem becomes animated, scintillation and flashes of lighter green leap as the wearer moves, the high clarity and excellent polish translate sunlight into a crisp, brilliant performance, and the vivid intensity pushes the color toward a more luminous and electric green that catches the eye from a distance. Under warm incandescent light the stone softens subtly, warmth brings out golden undertones that add warmth to the green, creating a rich, lavish hue that reads as velvety and enveloping, ideal for evening wear. Cool LED or boutique lighting environments emphasize the stone's clarity and facet crispness, blue white light sharpening the contrasts between step facets, while low ambient or candlelight enfolds the tsavorite in a deep, mysterious green, with the emerald cut producing bold flashes rather than scattered fire, a refined theatricality that rewards slow, deliberate viewing.

For those commissioning a bespoke piece this tsavorite is a rare blank canvas, its emerald cut and compact dimensions invite settings that showcase length and color, a slender, four prong mount will reveal maximum table and allow light to enter the gem freely, while a halo of small diamonds can frame and intensify the central green, creating a jewel that reads as both precious and singular. Platinum or white gold settings will accentuate brilliance and coolness, making the green appear more electric, while yellow gold will warm and enrich the tone, offering a vintage inspired contrast that feels both bold and intimate. The gem is particularly suited to an elegant solitaire ring that places emphasis on vertical lines and finger elongation, or to a pendant that allows the stone to swing and catch light with every movement, the dimensions 8.28 x 5.41 x 4.11 mm achieve a perfect balance between presence and wearability. As a natural, unheated tsavorite from East Africa it is a conversation piece for serious collectors, a gem that will be remembered across generations, and a centerpiece that a master jeweler can build around to create a wholly original heirloom.
