Gemstones - Spessartite Garnet

"Is it any wonder that we were quoted prices just over the $1,000 per carat mark at Tucson for luscious large spessartite? Months later, prices quoted to us for eye-clean, top-color 3 to 5 carat stones ranged from $400 to $800 per carat. If you didn't mind some gas bubbles or other small eye-visible inclusions, prices were generally half those for eye-clean stones."

The Orange Spessartites described in the article above wholesales for approximately $400-800/ct in 3+ct sizes (2010 timeframe), which is the smallest that All That Glitters typically purchases. Below is the wholesale pricing for Mandarin Orange Spessartite, Nov-Dec 2014, from The Guide.

Price lists for most high end fine colored gemstones can be thrown away as they are very outdated, as prices have increased tremendously. Who would thought a few years ago that nice blue Tourmaline of decent size would be selling at $1000/ct.....Wholesale!
