Tsavorite Garnet
This is the largest green garnet I've cut so far. It's not deeply cut, so in person, it looks more like a three carat stone. This is not a top color darker green tsavorite, so the price isn't nearly as high is it would be if it were. This is definitely one impressive, large green stone. The inclusions are minor, and hidden out in the ends of the stone where they don't have a noticeable affect on the clarity or brilliance. This would make an outstanding pendant. Color: Medium Yellowish Green, Cut: Elongated, Cut-Cornered Barion Triangle, Weight: 2.21, Dimensions: 8.8 x 8.7 mm. (Information supplied by photo contributor.) © Daniel Stair, CustomGemstones.com
