Garnet Tumbled Stone - 15-25 mm

Garnet Tumbled Stone, a smooth polished piece in deep wine red with a rich, glassy depth. Each stone is tumbled to a rounded shape and a clean polish that brings out the dark red colour. The smaller size suits detailed collections and grouping.

Garnet is traditionally associated with strength, vitality and refined energy, and is commonly used as an energizing, confidence-building stone. People often carry it for steady drive, keep it close for motivation, or hold it for grounded vitality. Its deep red has made it a prized stone since antiquity.

Each Garnet Tumbled Stone is natural, so the depth of red and the clarity vary from one piece to the next.

Geological Information
Garnet is not a single mineral but a group of related silicate minerals sharing the same cubic crystal structure, at Mohs 6.5 to 7.5, with deep red the most common colour though green, orange, yellow, brown and black also occur. The varieties, including pyrope, almandine, spessartine, grossular and andradite, each carry distinct chemistry and colour. The name likely derives from the Latin granatus, meaning grain or seed, referencing the resemblance of red garnet crystals to pomegranate seeds. Garnet is one of the oldest continuously used gemstones, found in Egyptian jewellery dating to 3100 BCE and extensively worked in Anglo-Saxon and Viking pieces, with exceptional garnet cloisonné in the Staffordshire Hoard. Sources include South Africa, India, Russia, Brazil, the USA, Sri Lanka and Tanzania; this material is from India.
