Availability

 

Availability of gemstones is not always as straight forward as what is being mined at the time. In some cases the “availability” of gemstones is controlled or ”managed”. For example, the value of a red garnet (pyrope garnet) is less than an orange garnet (spessaritite). This is because the orange garnet is far less common, plus it has the added value of an intense orange colour that is highly sought after.
