Green Garnet from Mali


These are a real oddity. Most people have never heard of Mali green garnet since it gets dwarfed by the tsavorite from Kenya. Back in the mid 1990s I got a bit of this material right from a distiguished old Mali gentleman who came right off the plane to my house. Turns out I knew his grandson here in Denver. It is very rare in this bright green color. The photo does not do the color justice. This material is included but the color is an awesome rich chrome kelly green, three piece set, 7.44 cts, $225
