Product Description for 1.38ct 7.16x7.04mm Trillion Tsavorite Garnet
Tsavorite garnet is ranked 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs' hardness scale, making it a wonderful gemstone to use in jewelry because it's durable enough to be worn everyday. Like all garnet, tsavorite is untreated, so the magnificent and highly prized color--ranging from beautiful pale green (grossular) to deep evergreen (tsavorite)--is completely natural, thanks to the presence of vanadium. It is found in Kenya, Tanzania, and Madagascar, but 85% of tsavorite garnets are under 1 carat.
