DESCRIPTION:

Vibrant Lot of Bubble-Gum Pink to Pinkish Purplish Red Tanzanian Umbalite/Rhodolite Garnet Facet 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. This Lot is running roughly 90% Top Facet Grade. Some stones do have minor inclusions and silk; however, these are confined to the periphery for the most part and should facet out with a little planning and hard work. We conservatively estimate that 85%+ of this lot should yield eye-clean or better stones with relative ease. This is the material you see being sold all around at $5.00+ per carat and at our price we are practically giving it away! 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!
