• 4 carats
• 9.3mm in length, 8.3mm in width, and 6.6mm in depth

This is gorgeous larger sized garnet. It is Reddish purple in hue with a medium - medium dark tone and strong saturation. The tone isn't overly dark so the color and facets are still open in low lighting.  This gem has some platelet inclusions and rutile needle inclusions visible under magnification. This gem should  please any garnet connoisseur.  This garnet is technically coined as "Umbalite" which refers to a garnet that is a mix of pyrope, almandine and spessartite, however, I do not have a RAMAN spectrometer to test the exact percentages of each variety in this gem and by appearance I can speculate that it is a pyrope and almandine dominant mixture which is rhodolite garnet by definition.

• 3.3 carats
• 10.4mm in length, 8.5mm in width, and 6.9mm in depth
• Faceted in my own Galaxy Octagon design
• Uncut gem sourced from the state of Oregon (USA)
• Unheated/Untreated
• Copper inclusions visible
• This gem is available as a loose purchase or with a jewelry commission 

This is a decent sized salmon colored Oregon Sunstone. This is a particularly clean piece, with only a few larger copper platelets visible.  This gem is simply vibrant! It is open tone and it will glow and sparkle in any lighting.  I'd recommend at least an 18kt yellow or rose gold for a setting. A 22kt yellow gold would be ideal. White gold alloys are very tough, its possible a white gold setting might damage this gem. A 95% platinum iridium alloy would be suitable as well.

Detailed Gem Description:

A natural and heat-treated zoisite var. Tanzanite with a dominant violet hue, a medium tone, and moderately strong to strong saturation.  This is an open-tone gem, it will glow and sparkle in any lighting!

See the last graphic for reference on how I graded these. To maintain originality, I made the reference graphics with gems of my own design but it is based on GIA's color description system.

Photos were taken in daylight and under a microscope.  The first four videos were taken in daylight with the sun overhead and a blue sky. The last few scenes in the fourth video are inside in passive lighting and under my overhead LED lights. The outdoor scenes in the fifth video were taken on an overcast day.   Please review all the videos thoroughly.
