What is in a Name – Just Make Sure You Get the Correct Gem

Natural Hessonite

There is so much than one can get confused with in the world of colored gemstones. Let alone the genuineness, there is a possibility that one can get really befuddled by several names a gem goes by! Usually a gem is given a fancy name to add to the romance or appeal.

Hessonite garnet is orange grossular that also goes by the name of Cinnamon stone. One may also get to hear the Hindi equivalent of gomed or gomedhaka or the Persian names of Zargun or Zarcunia.

The hessonite garnet is richly hued gem with a warmth to its appearance and glow of embers within. A good natural hessonite is all this and also displays a ‘roiled heat wave effect’ – a dreamy cognac in water like appearance or as if a heat wave is on within!
