An unusual color for synthetic garnet! Yb:YAG (Paraiba YAG) in Marco Voltolini’s ‘Sparkly Dome’. Truly incredible synthetic material with higher dispersion and refractive index than sapphire and a hardness of 8.5, so it’s suitable for rings.
The stone in pictures has sold, so I will facet this myself in my home studio and the stone size will be ~8mm wide.
Contact me for availability and pricing if you would prefer another size or another color of synthetic in this design. Alternatively, if you love the material, but prefer a different design, we can discuss further!
