4 different coloured bright Orange Spessartite Garnets cut from top coloured African material all range from lightly included to included with sugar type inclusions which is pretty normal for spess.
Stone 1 - 1.90 carat pear, this one is heavily included with a rutile inclusion across it and lots of sugar including lines and scattered sugar. Normally I don't purchase heavily included stones but the colour of this pear is Fanta orange it's about as bright and perfect as you see in a spess and the top vivid colour negates the inclusions. The inclusions are eye visible but when set the colour is again going to be the main thing you see on the hand. It's still a very pretty stone and great size for the price. $95.00USD.
Stone 2 - 1.93 Pretty mid to light orange cushion. Some rutile bands and some scattered sugar inclusions will look fairly clean on the hand when set. This one photographs yellowish in some pics but it's not it's a nice bright mid to light orange in real life. Similar stones sell for 3 times what I am asking for this one, really great stone for the price $250.00USD.
Stone 3 - 1.22 heart/trillion (darker of the two) this one is photographing way darker and browner than it really is, it is more per carat because again it is what Africans consider close to ideal in colour, it's a nice intense vivid orange with no brown at all in real life. It has rutile inclusions across it and scattered sugar inclusions but will look mostly cleanish when set. Could be set as a trillion or a heart shape by a skilled jeweller. I can't stress how much nicer it is in person than my pics. $250.00USD.
Stone 4 - 1.00 Trillion/Heart a lovely bright vivid mid orange, sought after colour. This stone has rutile inclusions across it and scattered sugar inclusions. You can see them in strong sunlight and certain indoor strong lighting but again set on the hand mostly you will just see the nice bright vivid colour. Could be set as a trillion or a heart by a skilled jeweller. $200.00USD.
Photos 1 - 3 were taken indoors next to a window during the day (daylight).
Photo 4 Was taken inside fluorescent lighting.
Photo 5 was taken outside in sunlight.
