AWESOME Chrome Green Demantoid Garnet Faceting Rough from Kerman, Iran. This is some of the better Demantoid from Iran that has come by us in a long time and we are EXTREMELY pleased to be able to offer it to you. Overall this material is extremely clean for Demantoid but most stones do have some inclusions as can be expected for this species of Garnet. We estimate that most stones will cut in the very slightly to slightly included range with many inclusions capable of faceting out or masking up well. It is EXTREMELY difficult to get this colored Demantoid in clean material and typical inclusions such as horsetails are prevalent in some of the rough if not most of it. This material is the perfect size as far as color goes as larger stones tend to get oversaturated and we are confident most of these will facet spectacular finished gems. Please note that even melee in this stuff is quite costly and the color on many of these stones  will just blow you away!

There is a very limited amount of this coming from Iran and we are glad to be one of the select few dealers carrying this material. Many of the stones in here are crystals or partial crystals and crystal sections and would be great for mineral collectors as well. The material really is MUCH better than the pictures show and you have to look at this stuff in person to fully appreciate its beauty. Don't miss your chance to purchase this as you may never get another opportunity!

1. There have been two notable finds of Demantoid coming from South Asia. Khost, Afghanistan has produced some spectacular Demantoid Crystals with super luster that were high facet grade; however, the color was more of a neon and Lime Green than the preferred Chrome Green. Iran has also produced Demantoid but of a more beautiful Chrome Green. Generally speaking, most of the Irani material gets excessively dark in the larger sizes and we suggest staying under 2 carats for ideal cut stones.
