$325
Demantoid garnets are a rich green variety of andradite garnet that was first discovered in Russia and the name is derived from its diamond-like adamantine luster. In fact, demantoids are the most rare and expensive type of garnet! Color and fire are always in a balance with demantoid, with people choosing either a darker emerald-like color of demantoid with little fire or a lighter color with fantastic fire. This stone is a lighter color with a lovely fire. This stone is almost eye-clean but does not include the demantoid indicative horsetail inclusion. This is a lovely stone that would delight any collector!
