Description
In 1994 a new type of garnet was discovered in the African nation of Mali. A mix of two relatively rare and valuable gem garnet types–andradite and grossularite–this new garnet was named “Mali Garnet” in honor of the locality of discovery. The most well-known gem grossular is tsavorite, and the most well-known andradite gem is the rare demantoid. Like both of these, Mali garnet has a high refractive index, giving it a beautiful brilliance, and the high dispersion of demantoid, giving it a lovely “fire.” The color can range from brownish to a bright green, with rarity and value increasing as the color follows that trend.
This Mali garnet is a beautiful yellow-green color. The gem is 100 percent natural and untreated in any way. It has excellent clarity, making it bright and scintillating in the hand. There may be tiny inclusions that are visible only with a 10x loupe.
This garnet was faceted outside the United States in a classic oval design. It weighs 1.78 carats and measures 8.2 x 6.5 x 4.4 mm.

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!
