Description:Rhodolite Garnets are some of the most vivid and beautiful gems in the Garnet family. These stones are beloved for their great color and large size stones. The Rhodolites from Tanzania are amazingly attractive, and are fast becoming very popular among collectors and dealers, as this material is not very common. This gem has a strong red color face up, and is only very slightly included. The cut on this stone is an "Oval" cut. The fact that this stone is over 3 carats makes all the difference. It is a superb, good sized stone from what is proving to be one of the premier localities in the world for the material. The fact that it is nearly perfectly calibrated makes it even more enticing as it would easily fit into a pre-made jewelry setting! Do not miss out on this beauty.
