Umbalite garnet is a rare and beautiful variety of garnet that belongs to the pyrope-spessartine series, often with some almandine content. It is known for its vibrant pink to purplish-red hues, sometimes showing hints of raspberry or lavender tones.
Key Characteristics:
Color: Ranges from pink, purple, to raspberry red
Composition: Primarily a mix of pyrope and spessartine garnets, with trace amounts of almandine
Hardness: ~7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale
Origin: The name "Umbalite" comes from the Umba Valley in Tanzania, where it was first discovered
Luster: Vitreous (glassy)
Clarity: Usually eye-clean
Use: Popular in jewelry, particularly in rings and pendants
Umbalite garnet is appreciated for its brilliance and relatively rare coloration among garnets. Because it comes from a specific region, its name is sometimes used as a trade name rather than a scientifically distinct variety.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
