Spessartite Stones come in many colours, shapes and sizes from around the world. However, the stone earns it’s name from the place where it was originally discovered in Germany. Some will say it comes from the term “Spessart” meaning Forest in German, which would describe the area in which the first stone was found circa 1832. Other sources say that the “Spessart” is the name of the mountain range in which the stone was discovered. Which ever story you choose to believe, the first Spessartite Stone was discovered in Germany.
It wasn’t until 1991 that the bright orange Spessartite’s were discovered in Africa, more precisely in Namibia. Later on, more were found in Nigeria in 1999 and in more recent years, in Mozambique. It is the Namibian stones that have the brightest orange tones and were compared to the famous drink Fanta Orange, and thus earning them the name of Mandarin Spessartite Garnet to differentiate them from other, less valuable stones with orange hues or tones
Spessartite is a type of garnet, and garnet is one of the birthstones for the month of January and is used as a stone for the 2nd wedding anniversary.
