Hessonite (Gomed) Buying Guide

Sri Lanka is home to the most renowned hessonite garnet deposits, but the gomed gemstone can also be discovered in Brazil, India, Canada, Madagascar, Tanzania, and the United States. 

Observe their Color.

The best quality Gomed bears reddish-orange or yellow-orange color. The presence of trace elements of iron and manganese is responsible for the stone's lovely colors.

Notice their Clarity.  

Typically, hessonite (gomed) gemstones have a clarity ranging from transparent to glowing.

Examine their Inclusions. 

Hessonite garnets are known to have a "scotch whiskey" or "sleepy" appearance due to their internal inclusions, also known as "horsetail" inclusions. This inclusion is exclusive to hessonite garnets and is prized by many collectors and enthusiasts.

See their Shape. 

Natural hessonite gemstone is usually finely cut into cushion shapes to maintain a good weight and obtain high-carat polished gomed gemstones. But other shapes such as oval, round, octagon and rectangle are not uncommon to find too.

For gomed-gem quality, the raw Hessonite is divided and polished into smaller stones of variable carat weight. In general, Hessonite weighing between 5 and 7 carats are appropriate for jewelry.

For the best results it is highly recommended that one wears only 100% natural, unheated, and untreated Hessonite gemstones. As per the Vedic scriptures, a heat treatment harms its sattvic nature, rendering the stone less effective and beneficial. Like other gemstones, the quality of Hessonite is also determined by the four Cs (Color, Cut, Carat, Clarity).  

Color

The best quality hessonite displays uniform realistic, sharp and shiny colors rather than blurred or opaque tones. Pure gomed gemstone is shiny, light-reflecting, smooth and glittery.

Cut

Gomed gemstones have an outstanding cut which shines and reflects light from all angles. The resulting shapes are not only perfect but really beautiful and captivating to the eye.  

Carat

Hessonite of 5 – 7 carat is most popular in Vedic Astrology. Significant smaller and larger hessonites are used in contemporary jewelry. Generally, the price of Hessonite rises as the size/weight/carat increases.    

Clarity

In the case of Gomed, typically, they have few inclusions visible to the naked eye. Hessonites with no inclusions to the unaided eye are super-rare and valuable. Thus, the Gomed stones with some inclusions are readily accepted, traded and used. Those with the least inclusions and best clarity are considered of premium quality.    

Dealers deal in Gomed stones synthetic to natural but which are treated/heated and color enhanced, so it is immensely important to purchase only from a reputed dealer with certification from a reputed lab.        

Hessonite (Gomed) Gemstone Price  

Gomed stone price depends on quality factors such as cut, clarity and color. The priciest hessonite gemstones are those without any visible blemishes in their entire surface, heavy weight and excellent cutting and shapes.

Hessonite garnet also known as Ceylon gomed is the finest and more sought-after gomed gemstone. It displays an excellent luster and it is flawless. In contrast, Indian gomed is a less expensive alternative with comparable healing properties. Remember to ensure you purchase untreated hessonite regardless of its source in order to reap its properties.

When a gemstone is heat-treated or undergoes the dying process, its healing properties are lost when it is worn. Hessonite has numerous curative properties; to maximize its curative effects, only untreated Hessonite stone should be worn.

The price of genuine, natural and unheated, untreated Hessonite garnet gemstones at Rudra Centre ranges from INR 6,480 to INR 53,375 (USD 81 to USD 667). Indian gomed ratna range from INR 750 to INR 4,680  (USD 9 to USD 58).

How to Identify or Test Original & Authentic Hessonite? 

The best way to check the authenticity of Hessonite is by getting a Lab tested report from a reputed laboratory. Rudra Centre only deals with Vedic Astrology approved gemstones that are natural, untreated, and unheated. All our Hessonite are certified by reputable labs like GIA, GLI, IGI and IGITL.  

Look for flaws along with inclusions. Use a magnifying glass with at least 10x magnification to examine the Hessonite carefully. Look for specks and blemishes, as they form with minute particles of other material. These flaws are strong evidence that a Hessonite is genuine. Lab-created (fake) Hessonite have no inclusions of this nature, and neither do natural Hessonite, but if you find flaws, then your Hessonite is genuine.  

Examine the gemstone for air bubbles. Essentially, lab-created Hessonite is glass that has undergone a process similar to that which forms natural Hessonite. Since they are made of glass, they retain miniscule air bubbles after formation. If there are bubbles within the Hessonite, it is not genuine. Be sure to inspect your Hessonite from every angle by turning it over. There is a possibility that bubbles of air will only be evident from a single angle.  

Look at how light is reflected by the Hessonite. Turn off all the lights and shine your flashlight on the Hessonite. If it is genuine, it will only reflect light of the same hue as itself. If it is a fake, made of glass, it will reflect colors other than the natural color of the gem.

Gomed Cleaning & Maintenance 

It is essential to give your gemstone a thorough cleaning in order to preserve its luster, as regular use can cause it to become dull. This washing enables it to purge itself from negative energies as well.   

Clean hessonite with a soft cloth and plain water. Rinse with a mild solution of soap and water. Avoid commercial jewelry cleaners and avoid sudden temperature changes.  

Apply light oil to enhance its transparency and excellence.
