DESCRIPTION: |
Awesome vibrant Lot of Bubble-Gum Pink to Pinkish Purplish Red Tanzanian Rhodolite Garnet Faceting Rough. This material was sold to us as Rhodolite Garnet; however, we have not tested it and therefore can not ascertain whether it is or is not Rhodolite (We are confident that the bulk of this material is Rhodolite; however, there look to be a handful of stones that fall outside of the color typically associated with Rhodolite). The material is some of the brightest and Pinkest Garnet we have ever seen with a slight Purplish overtone. Most of these stones do have some inclusions and that is the reason we have discounted the parcel. Many stones should cut eye-clean or better; however, most stones will probably cut very slightly included at best if cut for yield. This really is an exceptional deal as if this material were clean it would easily run $5-7 per gram minimum and that would be through us. The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out. |
