Yes, tsavorite is considered a rare garnet. Stones displaying a vivid green, excellent transparency and few inclusions are particularly prized and exceptionally difficult to find in larger sizes.
Tsavorite sets itself apart from the emerald through its often greater brilliance and superior visual clarity. Unlike many emeralds, it generally shows fewer visible inclusions while still delivering a luminous, deep green.
The principal sources of tsavorite are Kenya and Tanzania. These regions produce stones renowned for their exceptional quality and their striking shades of green.
