Tsavorite Gemstones and Their Types

Tsavorite is a type of garnet that is comparatively a modern gem. It also has a distinct green colour that distinguishes it from other green gemstones. Green is considered to be symbolic of rebirth, growth and prosperity. Tsavorites are therefore considered to be lucky gemstones that bring abundance and happiness to the wearer. They can revive a person’s inherent abilities and sharpen the senses. Also, tsavorites have a distinct brilliance that makes them glow and sparkle.

Types of Tsavorite Gemstones

There are different varieties of tsavorite gemstones based on their shade of green. Their colours vary from fresh, bright and vibrant green to dark and intense green, each having its own unique charm. This green gemstone matches well and stands out with diamonds.

• As a buyer, you must consider not only the colour but the tone as well as the saturation of the tsavorite gemstone. If the stone is under-saturated, it will appear pale green, while over-saturated tsavorites appear dark green or brownish. Therefore, it is best to choose one with a rich green tone that looks clear and bright when exposed to sunlight.
• The shades of the tsavorite gemstone are attributed to the layers of metamorphic rocks under which they were formed. Each gemstone, however, has unique and distinct features. It is common for tsavorites to have a few flaws, as tsavorites are slightly included in their natural forms.
• All the shades of tsavorites give out a lustrous glow when placed under light and give the wearer a refreshing pop of green. They are also hardy gems and with a higher refractive index, making it easier for jewellery makers to work with them. Buyers prefer darker and more intense coloured tsavorite gemstone jewellery to match emeralds because they are more wearable and less expensive.

Tsavorite Gemstone Jewellery
