Speaking of the upstarts of famous jewelry stores in recent years, the editor really has to mention Spessartine. Fanta stone, as the name suggests, has a sweet and refreshing color that is very similar to Fanta Orange. In terms of gemology, it is a type of garnet, containing unique manganese elements and iron elements. When the iron content is high, it will appear brownish red, and when the iron content is low, it will appear brown. It appears bright orange, so most of the brightly colored Fanta stones are varieties with low iron content.

How to choose Fanta stone
The value rating of Fanta stone is similar to that of diamond, focusing on Carat (weight), Color (color), and Clarity (clarity). The larger the Fanta stone, the higher its value. In addition, fresh orange and highly translucent colors are the top quality. However, like other garnets, Fanta stone is prone to inclusions that make the stone hazy and turbid. Therefore, the amount of inclusions becomes an important factor in the value of Fanta stone.
