Tanzanian Tsavorite Garnet 1.64 ct

Traditional Emerald Cut
Faceted by Peter Torraca

While custom cutters delight in innovative and sometimes elaborate designs, certain stones simply require classic treatment. A classic emerald cut was the only design that would do this exceptionally clean and perfectly green tsavorite any justice. This is one of those rare stones that I'm seriously tempted to squirrel away as a family heirloom.
