A Natural Fanta Spessartite Garnet is a rare and highly coveted gemstone, known for its fiery, vivid orange hue that resembles the color of ripe or Fanta soda—hence the name. This variety of spessartite garnet is treasured for its intense saturation, brilliance, and remarkable clarity, making it one of the most eye-catching garnets in the world.
Key Characteristics:
Color: The defining feature of a Fanta spessartite garnet is its bright, electric orange to reddish-orangecolor. The most sought-after stones display a vivid, juicy orange hue with a vibrant, almost neon glow. This bold color is completely natural and not enhanced by treatments.
Clarity: High-quality garnets are typically very clean and transparent. A top-tier Fanta spessartite will have excellent clarity, with minimal visible inclusions, allowing the intense color and brilliance to take center stage.
Brilliance: Due to its high refractive index, this garnet has exceptional sparkle and fire. When expertly cut, it radiates light beautifully and appears almost to glow from within.
Cut: These garnets are often cut into cushion, oval, pear, or round shapes to best display their brilliance and color. A precise cut maximizes light reflection, enhancing the gem's lively appearance.
Hardness: With a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5, spessartite garnets are durable enough for most types of jewelry, including rings and earrings, though care is advised for daily wear.
Origin: The most famous garnets come from Namibia and Nigeria. Stones from these regions are especially prized for their pure, vivid orange tones.
Symbolism & Meaning:
Garnets are associated with creativity, vitality, and confidence. Their fiery hue is said to inspire courage, passion, and positive energy. In metaphysical circles, they are believed to stimulate the sacral chakra, promoting joy and emotional balance.
Value:
The value of a Fanta spessartite garnet depends heavily on:
Color: The more intense and pure the orange, the more valuable.
Clarity: Eye-clean stones fetch a premium.
Size: Larger stones over 1 carat are rare and highly prized.
Origin: Stones from Namibia and Nigeria are especially desirable.

The colors in the photo have been heavily edited; the seller tried to hide the crack/flaw in the picture. This is a dishonest seller. I do not recommend anyone buy from this seller.

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.
