(6)
Tsavorite pendant and earring suite
Notes
This loose gemstone is paired with a CAD design that brings our gems to life as conceptualised made-up pieces of jewellery, a design collaboration between Strauss & Co and Taz Watson.
Tsavorite, a thousand times rarer than Emerald, boasts various shades of vibrant green. It does not require heat treatment like many other gemstones to emphasis its colour and due to its hardness, clarity, and brilliance, it has become a major competitor as a green gemstone. It is one of the world's most valuable and expensive Garnet species and is the stone to mark the 25th wedding anniversary.
Likely origin of these Tsavorites is Kenya
