Emerald-cut rhodolite garnets are prized for their rich raspberry-red to purplish hues, exceptional clarity, and symbolic resonance. This gemstone combines the brilliance of the emerald cut with the vibrant color of rhodolite, making it a standout choice for jewelry enthusiasts.
Origin & Formation
Rhodolite garnet is a blend of pyrope and almandine garnets, first discovered in the late 19th century in North Carolina, USA. Its name derives from the Greek words “rhodon” (rose) and “lithos” (stone), reflecting its rose-like coloration. Today, high-quality rhodolite garnets are primarily sourced from Tanzania, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Zimbabwe, regions known for producing stones with deep, saturated colors and excellent transparency.
