We sometimes see these interesting Grossular Garnets from Tanzania - they are quite light in tone, so they are bright but also have an extreme form of the turbidity of Hessonite. The stone is entirely clean, but has so much of the ‘scotch in water’ effect that it completely diffuses the brilliance of the stone to a kind of glow. A very unique look and quite different from Sri Lankan Grossulars.
