Tsavorite garnet rough -need advice
Hi.I bought parcel of African Green Tsavorite Garnet.Pieces range from 0,5 to 10,5 carat.I have already cut biggest one 10,5 carat to 6,1 carat size.I tried cerium oxide to polish it with no result.Will diamond paste polish it properly? Tsavorite has hardness 7,5 Mohs scale.What to do with these under 1 carat pieces? Use tumbler and tumble it? :)

Diamond paste works really well for the Rhodolite Garnet specimens in Kitty Poster's lapidary =^_^=.
