Product Details

A genuine demantoid garnet from the legendary Ural Mountains of Russia — the original and most historically prized source for this rare green garnet, first discovered in 1868 and beloved by Fabergé. Details: Weight: 0.80 ct Measurements: 6.5 x 5 mm Shape/Cut: Oval, mixed brilliant Color: Soft yellowish‑green Clarity: Included — natural inclusions visible, typical of Ural demantoid Origin: Russia (Ural Mountains) Treatment: NONE — 100% natural and untreated Species: Andradite garnet Why demantoid? It has a dispersion (fire) of 0.057 — higher than diamond — which is where it gets its name, "diamond‑like." Demantoid is the rarest and most valuable garnet in the world, and Russian material specifically is largely mined out, with only small artisanal production today.
