Color: Consistent purple red
Gem Family: Grape Garnet is a unique pyrope-almandine member of the garnet family.
Source: This rare purple-red garnet is mined only in the Mozambique. Mining of the alluvial deposit is done by hand using small tools like picks and shovels.
Clarity: All Grape Garnets are free of eye-visible inclusions.
Size Range: 0.3 carat to 3.0 carats. Large sizes are very rare.
Enhancement: The rich purple of rare Grape Garnet is the exact color of the rough removed from the mine. It is not enhanced in any way.
Lore & History: Garnets in legend light up the night and protect their owners from nightmares. This gem was carried by ancient travelers to protect against accidents far from home. Garnet is the birthstone for January. The name Grape Garnet was derived from its intense purple-red color: it will remind you of the ruddy grape glow of a fine merlot wine. It was actually named at the breakfast table: Columbia Gem House’s President, Eric Braunwart, was pouring his daughter Alixandra’s favorite juice when he noticed a striking color resemblance to the new garnet he was trying to name.
Toughness & Hardness: Grape Garnet has a hardness of 7.25 on the Mohs scale and it is quite tough.
Care & Cleaning: Garnet is very durable but try to avoid direct impact to the gemstone. Clean with warm water, detergent, and a soft brush. Grape Garnet can be put in ultrasonic or steam cleaners.
Special Characteristics: Grape Garnet has an unusually high refractive index of 1.79 or higher. This gives these gems exceptional brilliance. Only a very small portion of garnet mined in India meets the stringent criteria of rare Grape Garnet . These gems must be a consistent purple-red color, extremely well cut, and free of eye visible inclusions so the amazing brilliance of the gem can shine through.

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer een bod wordt geplaatst, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een persoon bereid is te bieden voor het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch bieden namens de bieder, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd tot het maximum om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden.
Wanneer er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bod' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de bieder op basis van hun maximale bod. Dit kan lijken alsof bieders zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon een resultaat van het systeem dat het bod bijwerkt om de maximale limiet van de bieder weer te geven.
