A few new African demantoid garnets for sale...

Thursday 15 July 2010

We've uploaded a few new African demantoids and thought we would quickly write about them. Top demantoids are very expensive and will put a very serious dent in most wallets. We consider that the ones we've uploaded are nicely priced considering their characteristics.
The colors of these demantoid garnets are average to nice (a strong yellow component is usually not what people are looking for). However, all these gems are beautifully cut and polished. Cut is very important for demantoids as their dispersion is high. They are rather clean. Most importantly, their weights are important. Demantoids are usually not found in large sizes and weights are important in determining their prices.
