Hello

Good idea for this topic.

This tsavorite garnet was stolen during the mineral and gem show in Tokyo in last June (2011); 4.59ct 13.50x9.60x6.10mm

very sad to know about such kind of thefts. i wonder how many of such stones are retrieved after theft?
its almost impossible to track their sales worldwide,very dim chances that someone notice these kind of informative posts and then notice such a stolen gemstone in the market.
i do not know about other countries but in India its impossible almost to get stolen goods back,its hard to prove ownership because most of the stones move on memo without papers.

i feel sad for the owner of this beautiful stone for loosing it to a thief :(

Hi!
A very pretty stone indeed! I feel sorry it fell into the wrong hands. With a bit of luck you never know, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
