garnet

Garnet is a brownish-red semi-precious gemstone, belonging to the silicate family. Within its chemical structure is an array of closely related minerals with similar physical and crystalline properties. The name, Garnet has its epistemological roots in the 14th century and from the word “Grenate” meaning Pomegranate red. Garnet was the most commonly used gemstone in the Late Antique Roman era to adorn weapons, jewellery and clothes of knights, emperors and kings. It was believed to symbolize knightly virtues, and it is the traditional Gemini and January birthstone. Today, it is becoming increasingly popular in the jewellery industry for making exciting accents to be worn on the fingers or ears. It is mined in several countries, including Argentina, Brazil and Germany.
