Grey Garnet: Existence, Rarity & Market Value


Question
Hi,i sometimes think, do grey garnet exist? Not colour change  but permanently grey garnet,like grey spinel?I`m big fan all kind of grey gems and i lake to have such if the stone exist.

Answer
Hi Livi,

A grey garnet huh? Well they do exsist but not for long. That color is not acceptable to the trade. It is not a marketable stone so it is not even kept usually. They get tossed into bags of rejects with other colors, shapes and damaged stones. Believe me they would love to sell them. Garnet comes in all colors even grey, but no one wants them. Send me your email address and if I see some I'll let you know and get them for yoy, Thanks and Good Luck, Peter
