1.3 ct Rhodolite Umbalite Garnet | Beauty in Pink | The Magenta Bloom
Beauty in Pink | The Magenta Bloom -Umbalite Rhodolite Garnet
◆ Provenance & Pedigree
Acquired during a solitary expedition to the Umba Valley (Tanzania, 2024)—the hallowed terroir of Africa’s most sublime garnets. Sourced amidst parcels of Dragon, Malaia, and Umba garnets, this stone embodies geological aristocracy.
◆ Artisan Alchemy
Commissioned for an octagon cut by a master lapidarist, its facets harness light with mathematical grace. The gem presents eye-clean brilliance, bearing but a singular inclusion—a discreet signature at the girdle, scarcely discernible under loupe scrutiny.
◆ Luminous Sovereignty
Rhodolite of ethereal disposition: In sunlight or illuminated environs, it unveils a chromatic ballet of violet-rose luminescence. A stone of versatile nobility—equally sovereign as a solitaire pendant or accent jewel for heirloom rings/earrings.
◆ Connoisseur’s Verdict
“A chromatic sonnet whispered by the Earth itself, Umba’s legacy meets lapidary transcendence.”
