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 light brown cushion; 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

Cushion cuts have soft, rounded corners and are a traditional choice for bold ring settings. Hessonite (Gomed) is a honey-brown to orange-red garnet and the gem of Rahu in Vedic tradition. Traditionally, a qualified astrologer reviews the chart first, since the right gem varies from person to person. The associations are traditional and symbolic, and no outcome is promised.

Care

Gifting

FAQs

What weight is right for me?

The right weight comes down to budget, how large you want the stone to look and, if you follow astrology, your astrologer's guidance. Some astrologers relate the Ratti weight to body weight; others use different rules, so recommendations vary.

Is it advisable to consult before wearing?

Tradition says a gem's suitability depends on the individual horoscope. Consulting first is common practice, and an astrological report is available on Brahmatells.

Is certification provided?

Certification details are not included on this page. Ask us before ordering if a lab report matters for this stone.
