      The colors of spessartite garnets can range from a bright vibrant orange to a deep red-orange color. Spessartite was once just a collector's gem but moved into mainstream gemology in the 1990s. Spessartite is 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs' scale and, like all garnet, is untreated, so the beautiful color that you see is strictly as nature created it.

      "I was not happy with this purchase. The color of the two gems I received did not match making it difficult to use them as earrings. I returned them for credit."

      "The first stone I received had a large crack or inclusion that looked like a crack quite visible with a loop. I returned it for replacement. The replacement is absolutley lovely. It is a deep burnt ember orange (a little darker than the picture) with lots of sparkle and looks flawless with the loop other than the color has a subtle lighter shading on one side which isn't visible to the eye, but easier to see with the loop. It measured in at 1.66ct. Still trying to decide if I want to mount it in the snaptite casting I purchased for it or just hang onto it to look at."
