Uvarovite

Green Garnet

Uvarovite is a deep green garnet gemstone beloved by collectors for its brilliant hue. Uvarovite is the rarest of the common members of the garnet group, and is the only consistently green garnet species, with an emerald-green color. It occurs as well-formed fine-sized crystals. The scarcity of these bright little gems, along with their gorgeous, untreated color, makes them a sought-after treasure for collectors.

Regarding the genuine stone, what does uvarovite look like? Typically, you’ll see uvarovite as vivid green druzy- a sparkling layer of tiny crystals on a larger rock, crystal, or geode. Individual uvarovite crystals are small and rare.
