What are tsavorite garnet gemstones?

Tsavorite garnet gemstones are rare, vivid green grossularite garnets, discovered in Tanzania in 1967 and named after Kenya’s Tsavo National Park. Their emerald-like color, driven by vanadium and chromium, and exceptional brilliance make them a prized choice for jewelry, often sourced from East Africa.

How should I care for tsavorite garnet gemstones?

Clean tsavorite garnet gemstones with mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush, avoiding ultrasonic or steam cleaners to protect rare inclusions. Their 7-7.5 hardness ensures durability, but store separately to prevent scratches, especially for smaller stones common in tsavorite jewelry.
