About Spessartite Garnet
Usually orange to reddish brown, gem-quality Spessartite or Spessartine garnets are somewhat rare. However, as blends with other garnet species, they include popular mandarin and Malaya garnets as well as color change gems. Spessartites make very durable jewelry stones. This type of garnet is rare and considered very valuable in the market especially at larger sizes above 2 ct. The main quality factors are color and clarity. The saturated pure orange is the rarest and most valuable, with prices ranging from $1,000 to $2,000 per carat depending on size. The bright yellowish-orange is the second most valuable color, with prices in the range of $750 to $1,200 per carat.
Mandarin (Fanta) Spessartite Garnet is a rare form of orange garnet often referred to as Mandarin Garnet for its vivid orange color.
More On Appraisal Certificates
Appraisal Certificates are done from accredited appraisers and represent the retail insurance replacement value for an item. While many companies do appraisals (such as jewelry stores), it is important to receive an appraisal by a group that does not involve themselves in the buying or selling of Gems or jewelry pieces as to avoid any conflict of interest. We typically use AGL or GS Labs (Gemscan), accredited appraisal companies (with Global Offices) for the Jewelry industry, located in downtown Toronto. We also have a number of Certificates from EGL a global appraisal company to the gem industry whose Toronto offices have since closed down.
An appraisal will assign a monetary value to a Gem or piece of jewelry and is ultimately subjective based on the appraiser's criteria for grading and experience. For this reason, only accredited and experienced appraisers are used to evaluate stones. An appraisal is not an indication of your buying power, that depends on your ability to "wheel and deal" as well as your source of supply and ability to buy in parcel lots or in bulk.
GS allows you to check Appraisal cert numbers online.
