Tsavorite, also known as chrome vanadium grossular, is a bright green variety of garnet. Its rarity, the extraordinary mint green color and its transparency make it a sought-after and precious gemstone and a guaranteed eye-catcher in every collection. Gemstone-quality crystals worth collecting are rare and only occur in Mererani, a small area in northeast Tanzania.
