DESCRIPTION:

Vibrant Lot of Pinkish Purplish Red to Cranberry Tanzanian Rhodolite and Umbalite Garnet Faceting Rough. This is one of the best lots of Rhodolite we currently have up. 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 few stones that fall outside of the color typically associated with Rhodolite). This Lot is running roughly 50%+ High Facet Grade with the remainder being a mix of lower Facet Grade qualities and Cabbing Rough. Some stones do have inclusions and silk; however, the lot is a bargain not to be missed. The lot is priced to sell so don't miss out.

COOL FACTS:
  1. Bright Pink and Pinkish Red Garnet is a rarity as the market is overflowing with overly dark Red and Brownish Red material that has become the norm for facet grade garnet. This material is extremely vibrant and clean! We are confident that this material will leave you in awe at the very least!
