A rare gemstone, that occasionally reaches over 1.5 carats, the Demantoid Garnet comes with a natural vivid color that will easily make others jealous. A bold hue that instantly adds character, these small but striking green gems are unlike any other. With a hint of yellow that adds to the fresh green, these gemstones also have the added advantage of increased resilience as they are a part of the garnet species and measure 8 on the Moh's scale of hardness.
Ideal for jewelry, it is making a lively comeback and can be worn even alone to create a stir. Popular thanks to its internal characteristics, the Russian demantoid garnet is often cut to reveal the horsetail feature. Essentially a fibrous, golden colored tail that forms naturally due to precipitation, these horsetails can increase the price of the gem considerably.
