Garnet (Grossular)
Hessonite
Hessonite is the honey-to-cinnamon orange variety of grossular garnet. In Vedic tradition it is Gomed, the Navratna gem of Rahu. A swirly, syrup-like 'treacle' look inside the stone is its signature and helps tell it apart from look-alikes such as citrine and orange glass.
