| This material cuts a nice bright stone and
works in just about any design. I prefer to cut it in deeper designs because it
is light enough and has great dispersion. This colour
change garnet is in limited supply and anything clean over 3 carats is
large, so snap them up while you can as most of the ones I have listed below are
over 6 carats! |
