GemsofNirvana.com introduces Spessartite (or Spessartine). Part of the Garnet family of gemstones, Spessartite is orange in color and is fairly new. Named after a district in Bavaria, where is was discovered during the 1990's, this unique and rare beauty can now be found in Nigeria, Madagascar, India, Sri Lanka, Brazil, Namibia, Zambia and even parts of the United States
Spessartite can be very expensive, even though they will be heavily included (due to the type of crystal it is produced from), with most pieces being internally streaked. Pay close attention to the description.
Given the Amber or Carnelian-like quality of Spessartite, I will forego the regular grading process and instead choose to be more descriptive. This should assist you more with your purchasing decision.
All are considered being the highly sought after "fanta orange," will be fully faceted and graded for Sparkle (initial appearance), Eye Clean (close inspection) and Inclusions (under Loop).
