This listing presents a single, transparent 2.04 carat round tsavorite garnet offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, with precise measurements of 7.87 by 7.84 by 4.31 millimeters. The gem has been fashioned with a mixed brilliant cut, yielding balanced brilliance and color performance, and it displays an excellent polish across all facets. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included when viewed at eye level, which translates to exceptional visual clarity for use as a centerpiece in fine jewelry. The stone originates from Madagascar and has undergone heat treatment as an enhancement, a stable process applied to improve uniformity of color and overall visual appeal without affecting the fundamental physical properties of the garnet.
The color of this tsavorite is the defining attribute of its rarity, noted as vivid in intensity and remarkably pure in hue. In the market for green garnets, fully saturated stones of this size and color are uncommon, as most commercial tsavorites appear in smaller sizes or with more moderate saturation. The combination of a weight just above 2 carats and a vivid, true green places this gem in a distinct tier relative to typical offerings, where stones of comparable color are often under 1 carat or show less uniform saturation. This specimen therefore represents a scarce pairing of scale and chroma, a characteristic that appeals to collectors and designers seeking a strong, uninterrupted green without the compromise of reduced size or diluted tone.
From a gemological and practical perspective, the stone is well suited to high quality mounting and daily wear when set and maintained properly. Tsavorite garnet typically registers at about 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, offering a favorable balance between hardness and brilliance, and garnet structure generally lacks true cleavage, which enhances resistance to mechanical damage under normal wear conditions. The mixed brilliant cut concentrates light return while preserving the vivid green saturation, and the very very slightly included clarity grade indicates that inclusions do not detract from the gem appearance at normal viewing distances. The heat treatment noted is consistent with industry practices to stabilize and enhance color, and full disclosure of this enhancement is provided by The Natural Gemstone Company to ensure clear provenance and treatment history. For clients seeking a rare, eye catching green garnet in a size suitable for a dominant ring or signature pendant, this Madagascar tsavorite offers a combination of optical quality, measurable rarity, and practical suitability that merits consideration.
