Green Peridot Gemstones Grossular Jewelry Variety

Origin:

Grossular is a variety of garnet. It comes in various colors, including green, orange, red, and colorless. Grossular deposits are primarily found in countries such as Canada, Tanzania, South Africa, and the USA. Particularly well-known are the green grossulars, also known as "tsavorite" (for the green variety), and the orange "hessonite."

Special features:

Grossular is characterized by its wide variety of colors, ranging from pale yellow to deep green. The green variety often has an intense hue that rivals that of emeralds. Grossular is known for its clarity, and many specimens are virtually inclusion-free. This makes it a sought-after stone for jewelry, especially in faceted cuts.
