This untreated natural Garnet is a unique blend of Grossular and Andradite, also known as 'Grandite'. It is found only in the West African nation of Mali, and is known for its exceptional dispersion and lively brilliance. Mali Garnet is durable, untreated, and brilliant.
This trillion was cut
from a special piece of rough brought directly from Mali to Bangkok
last week. We were fortunate to be offered this rock, and
while the seller knew how special it was, we had no choice but to
buy it. Any
loupe-clean faceted Mali Garnet weighing over 5 carats is rare.
This nearly 17-carat gem belongs in a collection of fine rare gems,
or, in a museum. |
