Demantoid brings these two traditions together: a fiery green garnet that many collectors see as a stone of renewal, devotion and quiet strength. Keeping a raw specimen nearby is often used as a reminder to stay rooted while your heart keeps growing.

Handle it by the sturdiest part, keep it away from hard surfaces and avoid soaking it in water or using cleaners. Dust it with a soft brush or a gentle puff of air. Store it on its own so harder stones do not scratch or knock the crystals.

These are natural raw demantoid garnet specimens from Pakistan. They have not been polished, dyed or reconstructed, and their color is the natural green of the garnet crystals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow big is each specimen?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach option is listed by weight, from about 10g to 218g.

Treat it like a collector piece and keep it on a stand or in a display area rather than in a pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes demantoid special compared to other garnets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemantoid has a higher dispersion than diamond, which means it can split light into flashes of color. Its bright green tone and rarity make it one of the most sought after garnet varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Demantoid Garnet?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemantoid is the green variety of andradite, a calcium iron silicate in the \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/garnet-meaning-properties-uses-how-to-tell-if-real\"\u003egarnet\u003c\/a\u003e group. Its name comes from an old word meaning diamond-like, a nod to its exceptional fire. Small amounts of chromium help create its vivid green color. Demantoid is found in only a few places in the world, and Pakistani material is known for well formed crystals on natural matrix. It is sometimes confused with green tsavorite garnet or peridot, but its fire and crystal habit set it apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFurther
