2.70 Ct. Tsavorite Garnet from Tanzania

When you are searching for a gemstone that will end the quest for a truly exceptional center stone, this transparent two point seven zero carat cushion shape green tsavorite garnet answers that need with confident presence. From The Natural Gemstone Company this gem arrives with precise proportions, measuring seven point eight eight by seven point two eight by five point two three millimeters, and a mixed brilliant cut that has been designed to optimize light return and color depth. The clarity is described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means that to the wearer and to an admirer the stone reads as clean and lively while retaining the natural character that collectors and connoisseurs value. The color intensity is dark, giving a saturated rich green that holds its own against the finest green gemstones, and an excellent polish ensures every facet boundary sings under light. Because this tsavorite is natural and untreated with no enhancement, and because it comes from Tanzania a region renowned for producing some of the most vivid tsavorites in the market, you are receiving a genuine, ready to set treasure that bridges the realm between investment grade rarity and everyday wearability.

What makes this tsavorite garnet stand out in brilliance compared to more commonly encountered green gems is a combination of material quality and cut design. The mixed brilliant cut of the cushion shape creates an interplay of larger pavilion facets and smaller crown facets that together promote lively scintillation similar to what collectors prize in well cut diamonds, yet the color response is entirely different. Unlike emeralds which are admired for their lush garden like inclusions and classic hue, emeralds tend to display light in a softer way because of their internal characteristics and the common presence of clarity treatments. This tsavorite displays a more immediate and vivid return of light across its surface which translates into a sensation of brightness that is unusual for deep green stones. When compared to peridot or chrome diopside the tsavorite maintains stronger saturation and a firmer facet contrast that reads as more luxurious in jewelry contexts. Compared to sapphires this tsavorite offers a greener, more jewel like tone rather than the cool or inky greens sometimes seen in sapphires, and compared to diamond the tsavorite brings color and depth that a colorless stone cannot provide even though diamonds excel at brilliance. The net result is a gem that balances color intensity and sparkling return in a way that makes it feel both lively and sophisticated when set into rings, pendants, or bespoke creations.

If your pursuit is an engagement ring that must be unmatched in personality, or a rare specimen for a curated collection, this tsavorite is an ideal solution. The cushion shape with mixed brilliant cut reads beautifully center set, and its dimensions give it presence without overwhelming a delicate mounting, making it versatile for vintage inspired or modern minimalist designs. The very slightly included clarity gives the stone life and authenticity under loupe while still offering a clean face up appearance for daily wear, and the excellent polish will help preserve its visual performance through time. For metal pairing white gold or platinum will highlight the jewel like sparkle and modern lines, while warm yellow gold will intensify the green for a classic, regal look. Because the stone is natural and unenhanced, The Natural Gemstone Company recommends simple professional cleaning with warm water and mild soap as needed, and routine checks by your jeweler to ensure the setting protects the stone during everyday use. When you choose this Tanzanian tsavorite you are choosing a gemstone that resolves the common dilemma between color and brilliance, providing a rare and enduring green that will satisfy the exacting needs of an engagement, the discerning taste of a collector, and the creative vision of a designer.
