Please note when viewing high quality gemstones on the net there are certain limitations:

1. Most monitors display images at varying dots per inch (dpi) and are not color-corrected.
2. GIF and JPEG formats compromise quality.
3. Internet browsers can only "see" 216 of 256 colors.

Since every system, browser, and monitor is different, we don't know if what you and we see are the same.

NGC Comment: A rare round carat size Namibian Mandarin Orange garnet. Many dealers are incorrectly selling Nigerian orange garnets as Mandarins. Only the goods from Namibia are true Mandarins. The gemstone is a bright, vivid orange and eye clean. Of course, garnets are not normally unenhanced. Production of this material has practically ceased. These gems are what every orange diamond wished it looked like. An excellent gemstone to collect for a client on a budget or could also be mounted in jewelry.
