Rhodolite Garnet Parcel 16.81 ct | Oval | Purplish Red | Umba Valley, Tanzania

This value-packed parcel features pear-shaped Rhodolite Garnets from the legendary Umba Valley in Tanzania, a region known for producing beautifully colored garnets with lively brilliance. The stones display a classic purplish-red hue—elegant, wearable, and consistently popular for both modern and timeless jewelry styles.

Beautiful purplish-red color

Rhodolite is loved for its refined balance of red and purple. In this parcel, the color reads as a rich purplish red, often showing a vivid glow in daylight and a warmer, deeper tone under indoor lighting—perfect for designs that want strong color without being overly dark.

Clarity: eye clean to moderately included (mostly SI)

The clarity in this lot ranges from eye clean stones to pieces with moderate inclusions, with the majority falling into SI (Small Inclusions). This makes the parcel especially practical for jewelry production: many stones present beautifully face-up while remaining affordable.

Ideal for matched designs & commercial jewelry

With their pear shapes, these rhodolites are excellent for:

• earrings (classic pear drops)

• matched pairs and small sets

• pendants and cluster designs

• commercial fine jewelry where color impact matters more than “perfect” clarity

Outstanding value

This parcel is offered at a very favorable price, making it a smart choice for jewelers, designers, and gemstone lovers who want strong color and versatile shapes without the cost of higher “top-grade” clarity.

A colorful, wearable Rhodolite parcel with excellent design potential—perfect for creating beautiful pear-shape jewelry at an attractive price point.
