With the emphasis on the bright and light oranges in the past decade, this color variety of Spessartite with just a touch of red as a modifier - a much more fiery color - lost some of its appeal. We love it, and as long as it is not dark (not at all the case here) it is capable of being a stunning gem. Spessartite has reasonably high optical properties and takes a great polish, so it is a lively and dynamic stone. Great size, precision cutting and entirely loupe clean.
