About Grape Garnet Gemstone
This rare purple-red garnet is mined only in the State of Orissa on the Bay of Bengal in eastern India. Mining of the alluvial deposit is done by hand using small tools like picks and shovels.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. 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.Grape Garnet® is a unique pyrope-almandine member of the garnet family.
