1.85 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from Tanzania

A singular expression of verdant luxury, this transparent tsavorite garnet weighs 1.85 carats and is fashioned into an elegant cushion shape that measures 6.74 by 6.27 by 5.11 millimeters, a proportion that reads as both bold and wearable. Its mixed brilliant cut orchestrates scintillation that dances across the stone with an intensity that immediately marks it as a center of attention. The clarity is described as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a level of purity that allows the gem to read with crystalline clarity and depth, while its excellent polish ensures every facet returns light with a mirror like brilliance. Sourced from the storied terrains of Tanzania and gently heat treated to refine its visual harmony, this tsavorite displays an intense green saturation that is rare in garnet, a green that feels alive, lush, and utterly refined. Presented by The Natural Gemstone Company, this gem is the kind of object that signals discernment, a quiet nod to connoisseurship that connotes taste rather than ostentation.

The cut and optical properties of this tsavorite are particularly relevant to how it will behave in a bespoke jewelry setting, and the cushion silhouette combined with a mixed brilliant pavilion creates flashes of light that flatter every movement. The green here is not flat, it is dimensional, with internal reflections that reveal both emerald lushness and lively verdure, depending on the light source. In a ring, the crown will seize the eye from every angle, in a pendant the stone will read as a luminous heart hung close to the throat, and in earrings paired as a matched duo the gem will articulate rhythm with the wearer’s gestures. Pairing with white diamonds will amplify the tsavorite’s brightness and create an air of modern elegance, while a halo or side stones in warm yellow gold will deepen its green and render a more classical, heritage inspired aesthetic. The mixed brilliant cut guarantees a versatility in design, a performance that looks equally at home in a minimalist bezel and in an elaborate vintage inspired setting.

Color is the language through which this tsavorite speaks, and it translates beautifully across a spectrum of skin tones, making it a versatile choice for those who appreciate both beauty and wearable luxury. On warm, golden complexions the intense green becomes incandescent, the gem appearing as a living jewel that complements and elevates underlying warmth, a harmony that reads as effortless sophistication. Paired with yellow gold, the stone will blossom, with the metal echoing the warm undertones of the skin and allowing the green to glow like a cultivated emerald light. For cooler, porcelain or rosy skin tones, a setting in white gold or platinum will create a striking, contemporary contrast, allowing the green to pop with clarity, a crisp dialogue between cool metal and vivid color that feels modern and refined. On deeper, richly pigmented skin the tsavorite offers a spectacular, regal presence, its intense hue flashing with jewel like authority, and when set in rose gold the tender blush of the metal introduces a romantic counterpoint that is both flattering and unexpected.

Owning this tsavorite from The Natural Gemstone Company is to claim a piece that embodies provenance, rarity, and meticulous craft, a gemstone that reads as both an heirloom and a statement. The Tanzanian origin speaks to a celebrated source of some of the finest green garnets, and the applied heat treatment is a modest enhancement used to harmonize tone while preserving the stone’s natural character, ensuring longevity and stability in everyday wear. At 1.85 carats, this cushion cut gem is substantial enough to serve as the proud centerpiece of a bespoke commission, yet refined enough to be worn daily by someone who wishes to carry a quiet emblem of achievement. For commissions we recommend considering settings that allow light to reach the pavilion, a balance of secure mounting and open design that will let the mixed brilliant cut perform at its best.
