Description
Sri Lanka is home to some of the world’s most diverse and character-rich garnets, and this beautifully assembled collection reflects that natural variety with elegance and harmony. Sourced from Embilipitiya, a region known for producing clean and vibrant stones, this parcel brings together one striking hessonite center stone and a carefully matched selection of rhodolite and pyrope–almandine garnets. The center piece, a 2.60 ct hessonite in octagon cut, displays the warm honey-orange glow that defines fine colour Ceylon hessonite, supported by SI clarity and crisp geometry that enhances brilliance. Surrounding it are fourteen smaller garnets totalling 2.92 ct, showing rich tones ranging from deep red to purplish-pink—each one offering clean faces, sharp Asscher cuts, and strong saturation.
This collection highlights the natural beauty and versatility of the garnet family. Hessonite, known for its silky internal glow, brings a soft and distinctive fire, while rhodolite and pyrope–almandine contribute, gemstone-grade colours appreciated by both designers and collectors. Together, the stones demonstrate excellent visual balance, making them ideal for custom jewellery work such as cluster rings, multi-stone pendants, antique-inspired settings, or modern colour-contrast designs.
Entirely natural and unheated, this parcel carries the authenticity and purity that gemstone buyers increasingly value. Their uniformity in cut, consistency in clarity, and harmony in tone make them not only aesthetically appealing but also a practical choice for jewellers seeking matched sets. Whether used to create a standout centrepiece or a refined gemstone ensemble, this Ceylon garnet collection embodies the craftsmanship, beauty, and geological richness that Sri Lanka is renowned for.
