Natural Hydrogrossular Garnet — 7.02 ct, Kenya, Square Cushion (GL)
This 7.02 carat hydrogrossular garnet originates from Kenya. Transparent gem-quality hydrogrossular is uncommon, as most material is typically translucent to opaque. The stone displays green body color often referred to in trade as “gooseberry.” Hydrogrossular may occur in association or intergrowth with vesuvianite (idocrase), and the two species can be difficult to distinguish without advanced testing. The stone is untreated.
