| Malaia garnet or Malaya garnet is a gemological varietal name for light to dark slightly pinkish orange, reddish orange, or yellowish orange garnet, that are a mixture of pyrope, and spessartite. Its found in east Africa, in the Umba River valler bordering Tanzania and Kenya. Malaia was at first believed to be a type of spessartite garnet. During the 1970’s rough malaia garnets were being mixed with parcels of rhodolite garnets being offered for sale. These off colored stones were rejected, and the name given to this type of garnet was malaia, which in Swahili working meaning outcast. In 1979, German and American gem dealers saw the opportunity to market the new variety or garnet, and took up the name. Malaia or Malaya garnet stones of pinkish orange or reddish orange color can display a color change or color shift. Rare and valuable, these color change or color shift Malaya garnets are not very well known as color changers and so therefore the price reflects them as such. In the future years these color changing Malaya garnets will become very well sought after as gem collectors start to realize these gems potentials. |
