Hessonite Gomed Natural-Tan-Brown – BTHG117

Looking for a Hessonite Garnet (Gomed) to set in your own ring or pendant? This loose stone is listed by weight so you can choose what suits your design.

This is a loose hessonite garnet, not a finished piece of jewellery; no metal setting is included. Weight options: 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti (16 options). The listing describes the tone as brown; gems vary, so ask for a daylight photo if the exact shade matters. Weights step from 3 Ratti to 18 Ratti, and larger weights mean a larger stone.

About hessonite garnet

A natural shape keeps the stone closer to its rough form and suits artisan settings. Hessonite (Gomed) is a honey-brown to orange-red garnet and the gem of Rahu in Vedic tradition. In Vedic practice a gemstone is normally chosen after a chart review by a qualified astrologer, since suitability depends on the individual horoscope. The associations are traditional and symbolic, and no outcome is promised.
