8.03ct Legacy Magenta Rhodolite Garnet | Kangala Origin

Majestic Neon Violet Red Rhodolite | KANGALA MINE

Unearthed from the fabled highlands of Kangala, Tanzania, this Rhodolite Garnet stands as a rare testament to nature’s brilliance and the enduring spirit of artisanal discovery. Revered alongside the iconic Mahenge and Umba regions—and Mozambique’s storied Manica Province—Kangala is whispered among collectors as a hidden cradle of garnet excellence.

During Luvici's Gem Hunt expedition last year, this exceptional piece was discovered
under serendipitous circumstances. While procuring garnets from a different locale, a
seasoned miner revealed this singular stone—recently acquired after an arduous journey through Kangala’s rugged terrain. It immediately captivated our founder’s trained eye and concluded the day’s acquisitions with quiet triumph. What sets this Rhodolite apart is its rare neon glow, a vivid radiance that dances within the gem and is best appreciated in motion (see video in the description). With minimal inclusions and remarkable eye-clean clarity, it is a gemstone that transcends ordinary beauty—deserving of its place in the Luvici Legacy Collection. Now held securely in our private Gem Vault, this jewel is more than a gemstone—it is a story, a moment in time, and a legacy waiting to be passed on.

Discover the legend. Own the glow. Viva Magenta!!

Important Note to Our Esteemed Collectors and Shoppers

In the world of fine gemstones, color reigns supreme. When selecting a gemstone,
prioritize color above all else—it defines the gem’s personality, value, and visual impact. Clarity follows closely, enhancing brilliance and purity.
While cut and size contribute to beauty and presence, they are considered secondary— unless you’re exploring exceptional categories such as Rubies, Sapphires, Emeralds,
Alexandrites, Tsavorites, Spinels, Diamonds, Paraiba Tourmalines and other rare
Collector’s Gems. In these cases, size becomes a significant factor, especially when
paired with extraordinary color.

As you shop on our platform, let this timeless gemological wisdom guide your choices—ensuring each selection is both meaningful and magnificent.
