DESCRIPTION: |
Vibrant Lot of Large Pinkish Purplish Red to Cranberry Tanzanian Rhodolite Garnet Nodule Facet Rough. Overall most of this material is clearly Rhodolite; however, there looks to be a Malaya Garnet mixed in with the lot (Only 1 stone it looks like is a Malaya). This Lot is running roughly 90%+ Medium to High Facet Grade with the remainder being a mix of lower Facet Grade qualities and Cabbing Rough. Please note that many stones do have a degree of silk present that will give some of the finished stones a sleepy look; however, it is EXTREMELY difficult to get clean Rhodolite Nodules from Tanzania and this is some of the best new production material we saw on our recent buying trip to Tanzania. Much of this is the material you see being sold all around at $3.00+ per carat! The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out. |
