Garnet gemstone pendant faceted 925 silver 25x12 mm

Popularly known as the "carbuncle," the classic red garnet derives its name from the Latin "granum" (grain), likely due to its granular crystal form or its resemblance to the bright red seeds of the pomegranate. Garnet is not a single type of stone, but an entire family: almandine and pyrope are the most well-known red representatives, alongside which there are spessartine, grossular, andradite, and uvarovite in various colors. This faceted pendant is set in 925 sterling silver.
