0.40ct tsavorite garnet from Tanzania. This is an absolutely stunning gem, it is a vivid, shocking, neon green colour which is the most sought after hew for these very rare garnets. It does have some minor inclusions/flaws but none of these are dark or obtrusive and none penetrate the surface of the gem, they are all just fissures and feathers. I cut this gem from rough material I acquired directly from a Tanzanian miner which has allowed me to keep my costs to a minimum, I cut gemstones purely as a hobby, this is not my business. As such I am able to keep the price for my gemstones as low as I can while respecting their rarity and market value. I am however, fairly flexible on price so please feel free to make me an offer and I guarantee that no reasonable offer will be refused.

Tsavorite garnets are one of the rarest, most sought after and most valuable of all types of garnet. I believe that only top grade demantoid garnets and vivid blue garnets would be more highly valued. With these tsavorite garnets the colour is the most important factor when it comes to the value of any gem, the brighter, more vivid the colour, the more valuable the gem is. The garnet I'm selling here is at the absolute pinnacle of the colour scale, making this a very high grade and valuable gemstone.
