Natural Garnet

Natural Garnet Garnets are associated with the color red, but they actually are available in a variety of colors.

Rhodolite Garnets are actually composed of pyrope and almandite; this variety of Garnet is fairly scarce. The most desired hue is Purple Pink, often called raspberry red.

These gemstones are durable and well suited for virtually all jewelry settings. Garnets are singularly refractive and typically have excellent clarity. Rhodolite Garnets are not typically treated.

There are 69 Garnet(s) organised in the following categories: Cabochon LotCabochon SingleCrystalsFacet LotFacet SingleJewelry Manufacture LineRoughSet and Layouts,  gemstones. Price of our Garnet range from USD 11.00 to USD 169.00 and all gemstones are 100% natural. No lab, created or synthetic gemstones.
