DESCRIPTION: |
Vibrant Lot of Pinkish Purplish Red to Purplish Pink Tanzanian Rhodolite Garnet Faceting Rough. OK Folks, we recently did a buy-out of old stock East African Faceting Rough in Tucson and this was part of that buy-out. It is some of the best colored Rhodolite we have been able to offer via an E-Newsletter in a long long time! 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). The Lot is running roughly 60%+ High to Top Facet Grade and the bulk of these stones are nice chunky crystal sections shaped for high yield. This is all we have of this material as it was one of the miscellaneous parcels of Garnet we picked up so if you like what you see grab it before it is gone! |
