Red Garnet Necklace
Description: Garnets are best known for their rich, red color, as is shown in our spectacular first chakra jewel. The larger stone is very dark and regal-looking, especially with the faceted fine garnet which sits on top. Think of black cherry soda or dark bing cherries for color. The stone pictured is a sample, but all the material we have is quite similar. When I have purchased garnets in the rough, they are shaped like eight-sided soccer balls that are so dark, they appear black. We are cutting these stones in our studio to be thinner, so that the light can shine through and light up the color inside. You can expect some small surface pits, as garnets are often frought with inclusions. It is rare to find ones that are as large and clean as ours.
