2.95 Carat Natural Loose Hessonite Garnet Oval Shape Gem For Jewellery Making

About the Item

Loose Hessonite Garnet Weight: 2.95 Carats Dimension: 9 x 7.5 x 5.1 Mm Origin: Africa Shape: Oval Color: Orange Fanta Treatment: Non Certificate: On Demand Hessonite garnet, also known as "cinnamon stone" or "gomedh" in Sanskrit, is a captivating variety of the garnet mineral group. Its name derives from the Greek word "esson," meaning inferior, due to its resemblance to the color of tamarind seeds. This gemstone's most distinctive feature is its warm, earthy hues ranging from honey-yellow to reddish-brown, reminiscent of the changing autumn leaves. Compositionally, hessonite garnet belongs to the grossularite species and is primarily composed of calcium aluminum silicate. It often contains traces of iron, manganese, and other elements, which contribute to its varying shades. The gem's coloration arises from these trace elements and its unique chemical composition. Sri Lanka, Brazil, India, and Africa are prominent sources of hessonite garnet. Inclusions within the stone, such as the "horsetail" inclusion, which appears like a fibrous pattern, are sometimes considered desirable, adding to the gem's allure and authenticity. Astrologically, hessonite garnet holds significant value in Vedic astrology (Jyotish), where it is believed to be associated with the planet Rahu. According to this belief, wearing a hessonite garnet is said to bring luck, success, and protect against malefic effects of Rahu, enhancing one's focus and concentration. In terms of healing properties, hessonite garnet is thought to possess several benefits. It is believed to aid in balancing energies, fostering creativity, and promoting vitality. Some also attribute it with the ability to alleviate fear and anxiety, promoting courage and self-confidence. Jewelry designers and collectors value hessonite garnet for its unique color palette and rarity. Its warm, rich tones make it a favored choice for statement pieces in rings, pendants, earrings, and other jewelry forms. When used in jewelry, it's often set in sterling silver, yellow gold, or rose gold to complement its warm hues. Overall, hessonite garnet's exceptional color range, astrological significance, and perceived metaphysical properties contribute to its desirability and enduring popularity in the world of gemstones.
