Tsavorite – The Rare Green Marvel of Untamed Beauty

Tsavorite, the most dazzling variety of grossular garnet, captivates with its vivid emerald-green hues – ranging from fresh spring green to deep forest tones, created by vanadium and chromium traces during formation. This exceptionally rare gemstone was discovered in 1967 by British geologist Campbell Bridges in the Tsavo region of Kenya (from which it gets its name), and has since become one of the most sought-after colored gemstones for its fiery brilliance that rivals emerald yet boasts greater durability (Mohs 7-7.5). Unlike many gemstones, tsavorite is never treated or enhanced, making its breathtaking color 100% natural – a fact that, combined with its extreme rarity (found only in East Africa's gem-rich belt between Kenya and Tanzania), places it among the most exclusive and investment-worthy gemstones in the world, perfect for those seeking both unparalleled natural beauty and lasting value in their jewelry pieces.
