Alle Auktionen / Etnografica / EXCEPTIONAL Spessartine Garnet Crystal FANTA 1.64 carats...


This natural Afghanistan orange-spessartite garnet displays an exceptionally intense, bright, and highly expressive Orange Fanta color. The crystal offers a remarkable visual presence, with a warm, highly saturated hue, well highlighted by excellent light response despite its rough state. The overall impression is of superior quality and dense material. Technical characteristics Stone: Natural Afghan orange-spessartite garnet Weight: 1.64 carats Dimensions: 7.5 × 5.4 × 5.2 mm Origin: Afghanistan Color: Bright Orange “Fanta” Transparency: Good to very good for a rough crystal Appearance: Natural rough crystal Treatment: None Detailed gemmological analysis Color The color is straightforward, vivid, and very well saturated, typical of the finest Afghan Orange Fanta spessartites. The orange is bright, with no excessive brownish undertone, and with remarkable intensity for this size. Saturation remains homogeneous across the entire crystal. Transparency & internal structure Transparency is very satisfactory for a rough crystal, allowing good light circulation through the material. Visible inclusions are strictly natural, consistent with the genesis of the garnet, and do not alter readability or the stone’s visual impact. Morphology and potential The gem’s balanced and relatively massive morphology provides an excellent starting point for a cutting project, with potential to retain color and brightness after faceting. In its rough state, the crystal also has strong collector value, representative of high-quality Afghan spessartites. Notable points Intense and bright Orange Fanta color Very good saturation for 1.64 carats Good transparency for a rough crystal Favorable morphology for cutting Natural, untreated crystal Afghan origin Conclusion This is a high-quality Afghan orange-spessartite garnet, combining expressive color, legible natural structure, and excellent gemmological potential. A serious piece, as interesting for a demanding collector as for a carefully finished cutting project. General Terms of Sale – MineralsOpals: At MineralsOpals, your satisfaction is our top priority.
