3.76 ct Red Garnet - Emerald Cut

At 3.76 carats, this garnet from Mozambique carries its red color through an emerald cut, measuring 8.1 x 6.1 x 3.8 mm.

Garnet is a family of distinct species rather than a single gemstone, and each species carries its own color range, sources, and character. Mozambique's northern gem fields supply ruby, tourmaline, and a steady run of fine garnet with the strong color East Africa is known for. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

Its exact combination of color, cut, and origin is its own, the kind of center stone you choose on purpose and build a piece around. Hand-selected and photographed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
