GARNET COLOR:

Garnet is one of the most diverse gemstones in terms of colors, ranging from greens to soft intense yellow, as well as orange and earth colors. The color tends to have a significant impact on Garnet’s value. Darker shades usually tend to be less valuable than brighter colors. Nowadays, the market trends indicate that the greener colors, such as Demantoid and Tsavorite, are more highly valued than the standard red color. Tsavorite is often compared to emeralds, given the similarity in color. A higher dispersion and higher refractive index tend to give the tsavorite a crisper look compared to most emeralds of similar quality. Furthermore, Garnets are not brittle, do not chip easily, and are considered better candidates for jewelry.

GARNET CLARITY:

Garnets are relatively hard stones and hence fairly easy to work with; they have excellent refractive properties, and so a skilled cutter can bring out the pure brilliance of the stone. They are typically purchased 'eye-clean' or favorably in terms of clarity. For example, the existence of obvious inclusions can reduce the value of a Tsavorite Garnet in a faceted cut by roughly half. Usually, any included stones are cut in cabochon; they exhibit great color and brilliance. There are rare cases where the clarity of the gem is not of primary concern.

GARNET CUT:

Many garnets are cut into conventional shapes and sizes to allow easy setting into jewelry. Expensive fine-quality garnets like tsavorite are cut into shapes and cutting styles that allow more carat to be retained from the rough. Garnets come in a variety of cutting styles and shapes. Demantoid is often cut to exact dimensions that allow the best possible representation of its fire. It is also popular for designer cuts and carvings. Red garnets are excellent for cutting into cabochons and beads. They are generally found to have tremendous clarity and to be very transparent.

GARNET CARAT WEIGHT:

Garnets can be found in all weights and sizes. Some garnets, like tsavorite and demantoid, are more commonly found in small sizes, so their value goes up significantly with size. Stones under one carat tend to be widely available and cost in the tens of dollars. However, Garnet gemstones of three carats are uncommon and, therefore, more expensive, with gems of over ten carats being truly rare. Other garnets, like almandine, are far more frequent in larger sizes, so there’s no dramatic rise in value as size increases.

GARNET HISTORY AND MYTH:

It was believed Prophet Noah (AS) used a Garnet lantern for light as he steered the Ark at night time. The stone was extensively used by the Egyptians, the Romans, and the Greeks, mainly for jewelry though the stone was also viewed as a protector of the wearer. They sustained their popularity through the Ages and were widely used for Bohemian jewelry in the 18th and 19th centuries; they were also very fashionable in Victorian times though this was still very much the red Garnet.
