Blue Garnet: A Rare Gemstone
Blue garnet is a highly rare and unique variety of garnet, distinguished by its remarkable blue color, which is attributed to the presence of vanadium. Unlike the more common red garnets, blue garnets exhibit a color-changing phenomenon, often appearing blue-green in daylight and purplish-red under incandescent light. This color change is similar to the one seen in alexandrite, making blue garnets particularly prized among collectors and gemstone enthusiasts.
Origin and Occurrence:
Blue garnets have been discovered in a few locations around the world, including Madagascar, the United States (particularly in Idaho), and Turkey. The first known blue garnets were found in the late 1990s in Bekily, Madagascar.
Properties:
- Chemical Composition: Blue garnets belong to the pyrope-spessartine series, with the color primarily influenced by the presence of vanadium.
- Hardness: They have a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, making them suitable for various types of jewelry.
- Refractive Index: The refractive index of blue garnets ranges from 1.73 to 1.75, contributing to their brilliance and luster.
Value and Rarity:
Due to their rarity and the captivating color-change effect, blue garnets are highly valued. They are often considered collector’s items, and their price can be significantly higher than that of more common garnet varieties. The quality, size, and intensity of the color change significantly influence their value.
Uses in Jewelry:
Blue garnets are used in various types of jewelry, including rings, earrings, pendants, and bracelets. Their unique color and rarity make them an excellent choice for those seeking a distinctive and valuable addition to their gemstone collection.
Care and Maintenance:
Like other garnets, blue garnets are relatively durable. However, they should be protected from hard knocks and prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. Cleaning them with warm soapy water and a soft brush is recommended, avoiding harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners.

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