Spessartite Garnet Ring


Some seller says an orange red spessartite garnet commands highest price. Other sellers say mandarin garnet indeed commands the highest price. As far as I’m concern, an orange mandarin garnet is far better in demand and price than red spessartite garnet.

Anyway, I can hardly resist this magnificent orange red spessartite garnet in 18k yellow gold ring. The look & colors of this spessartite is superb. The ring style is contemporary. The spessartite garnet weighs 21.49 carats.

This ring is offered by Nigel Milne in 1stdibs.com at $8,400.

Now I understand why some seller prefers an orange red spessartite garnet.
