Super lovely Chrome Green Demantoid Garnet Crystal Rough from Kerman, Iran. This is some of the best material we have seen come from Iran as far as color and quality go. Most of this is unfortunately small in size and ideally suited for commercial cutting. There are some nice stones in here worth custom cutting but overall we recommend this lot for either overseas cutting or the collector that likes to have a little of everything. There are a bunch of very clean perfectly terminated crystals in here and the bulk of the lot is composed of nicely terminated crystals or crystal sections. This lot really is a steal for the price. There is a very limited amount of Demantoid coming from Iran and we are glad to be one of the select few dealers carrying this material. This is EXTREMELY discounted and we are confident this will make the right person VERY VERY happy! You really can't go wrong with this price so don't miss your chance at purchasing this!

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.
