This is a really nice, colorful Garnet, as you can see from the    pictures.  The color is a wonderful, rich Orange - hence the reference to “Fanta” soda!.  It has a top quality cut,  which really enhances the stone.  For our “Buy it Now” stones, we try to only list stones that are professionally cut and have top color.  Most people don’t   give nearly enough thought to cut these days.  Most stones you’ll see on   the open market are cut in third world countries.  They try and   maximize the carat weight, so they leave large windows, and they almost   never do a full diamond polish,   because it’s expensive to do.    Just   take a look at the   pictures.

I     took pictures of this stone in high magnification against a   white background   to give     you the best idea of color and quality.    As a certified   gemologist I can verify that the above description is         accurate and   that this stone/stones have been tested in the gem lab to    verify     identity and natural origin.
