Lotus Garnet and Diamond Pendant in Rose Gold by Parle
This elegant drop pendant is exquisitely crafted from 14 karat rose gold, showcasing a .80 carat Lotus Garnet at its center, beautifully encircled by .10 carats of diamond accents. The Lotus Garnet, a rare gemstone discovered in late 2015 in the Mahenge region of northern Tanzania, is prized for its unique color palette, ranging from pink to orange hues. This distinct range of colors is the result of a blend of Pyrope, Almandine, and Spessartine garnet compounds found within the stone, offering a captivating display of natural beauty.
The rarity of Lotus Garnet is due to its limited production, as it is primarily found in alluvial deposits, with each extraction yielding only small quantities of the gemstone. This scarcity adds to the allure and value of Lotus Garnet jewelry, making pieces like this pendant highly sought after. The gemstone's remarkable color spectrum is best appreciated under sunlight, where its vibrant hues come to life, and it may exhibit a slight red fluorescence, adding to its enchanting allure with the illusion of a color change.
This Lotus Garnet drop pendant, with its diamond accents and the mesmerizing beauty of the Lotus Garnet, offers a piece of extraordinary elegance and rarity. It symbolizes not only the enchantment of natural gemstones but also the discovery and appreciation of new gem varieties, making it a treasured addition to any jewelry collection.
