Discover the fiery allure of this stunning 7.05-carat natural Hessonite Garnet, a gem of significant cultural and astrological importance. This beautiful oval mixed-cut gemstone, with dimensions of 17.2mm x 10.3mm x 4.5mm, showcases a captivating blend of deep brownish-orange and cinnamon hues.
Known in India by its common names, Gomed or Gomedham, this gemstone holds a revered place as one of the Navaratnas—the nine sacred astrological gems. This particular Hessonite is a true native of Indian mines, displaying the signature "cow pee" yellow to cinnamon-brownish-orange colour tones that are a hallmark of its authentic origin.
As a completely untreated gemstone, its natural beauty is preserved exactly as it was formed. The stone contains specific inclusions—such as subtle 'sugar' like texture or 'treacle' effect—that are a definitive indicator of its genuine, unheated state. These unique characteristics are not flaws, but a testament to its authenticity and journey from the earth to your collection.
With its impressive size and rich colour, this Hessonite Garnet is an ideal choice for a powerful and beautiful ring or a pendant. It’s a gemstone that combines traditional significance with natural splendor.
