Buying a loose gemstone gives you independence, you get the freedom to make your own choice, your own jewelry design.
A natural 1.07 carat tsavorite garnet in a round cut, completely untreated. Tsavorite is a calcium aluminum silicate (grossular garnet) colored by trace vanadium and chromium, producing vivid jewel-tone greens that rival or surpass the finest emerald in color intensity. It was discovered in 1967 in Kenya's Tsavo region and has never required treatment of any kind — no heating, no oiling, no filling. At 1.07 carats in a round cut, this is a versatile center stone format in one of the rarest green gemstones available.
Why Choose this 1.07 ct Round Tsavorite Garnet?
Tsavorite's case against emerald is straightforward: equal or greater color intensity, dramatically better clarity (tsavorite is typically eye-clean; emerald is almost always heavily included), more durability, and zero treatment requirement. A round brilliant cut in tsavorite is less common than oval or cushion but provides maximum light return — the most vivid presentation of the green in any standard setting format.
