Tsavorite, a vibrant green Garnet, is prized for its intense, emerald-like hue. This rare gemstone, discovered in Tanzania's Tsavo region, is a variety of grossular garnet colored by trace amounts of Vanadium and Chromium. With a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, Tsavorite offers good durability for jewelry. Its brilliance and high refractive index contribute to its exceptional sparkle. Unlike Emeralds, Tsavorite typically lacks inclusions, making it a highly sought-after and valuable gemstone for its pure, vivid green.
