Description
This Tsavorite garnet is a gorgeous intense green color, one of the finest and most desirable hues. Tsavorite garnet is named for the Tsavo region of Kenya, where many of these amazing green garnets are mined. While first discovered in 1967 in nearby Tanzania, significant quantities of gem grade tsavorite garnets have only been found in parts of Tanzania and nearby Kenya. Tsavorite is a form of grossular garnet, colored intensely green by trace amounts of vanadium.
This garnet is 100 percent natural and untreated in any way. The gem was upcycled from a vintage piece of jewelry, and it would originally be from Kenya or Tanzania. It has very small inclusions that are quite difficult to see with the unaided eye from a normal viewing distance. The inclusions have been factored into the price, making this a great value for the size and color.
This garnet has been recut in the United States to improve the brilliance; it is faceted in a classic brilliant oval design and cut to high precision. It weighs 0.91 carats and measures 7.1 x 5.2 x 3.6 mm.

Video Request
Although we do our best to take the highest quality images, sometimes it can be difficult to envision how it will look on your hand. We can take a video of up to four gems side by on the hand to help you compare them and see how they perform in daylight. Please provide the following information, and include the SKU numbers or links to the stones you would like to see a video of.
Please note that we don’t do 360-degree videos as colored gems are optimized to be viewed face up, and because the current technology is such that none of the 360-degree systems we have tested provides the accurate color. Our desire is to present the most honest and accurate color possible!
