| DESCRIPTION: |
Awesome lot of Vibrant Ruby Red to Rose Red Garnet Faceting Rough coming from none other than Arizona, USA. Over the years this material has gotten very difficult to get a hold of and we were lucky to come across this parcel a few weeks ago during a buy-out in Tucson of mostly East African Rough. This material is rarely very large and this parcel represents what is typically produced as far size goes; however, this is some of the cleanest brightest material we have seen. The bulk of this should cut eye-clean to FLAWLESS finished Gemstones; however, the material is relatively small and ideally suited for commercial cutting overseas. We don't get to offer too much American rough because of limited production and high prices and for all you patriots or origin lovers this is a win win situation. I'm pretty sure it would cost you more to collect this material yourself. This is one of only 2 parcels we have available and we don't know if we will get any more in the near future!! |
