This page gathers every stone in our collection whose dominant hue reads orange — from the warm, saturated tones of garnet to the delicate blush-orange of sapphire. Orange is among the less common gemstone colours, and it arises through quite different means in each species, which is why the varieties assembled here look and behave differently in the hand.
You will find Spessartite Garnet, whose vivid mandarin to reddish-orange colour is driven by manganese; Orange Tourmaline, often warmer and more golden, with the pleochroism typical of the species; Padparadscha Sapphire, prized for a subtle blend of pink and orange rather than pure saturation; Spinel, singly refractive and bright with a clean, crisp body colour; and Zircon, notable for high refractive index and dispersion that lend it noticeable fire.
When choosing, weigh three things: the exact position of the hue — whether you want a red-leaning, golden or pastel orange; durability relative to the intended setting, as sapphire and spinel are harder than garnet, tourmaline and zircon; and brilliance, since zircon and spinel return light differently from garnet.
