Garnet belongs to a group of closely related minerals with the same crystal structure but varying chemical compositions. While garnet is found in many colors, red is the most abundant and well known. This garnet cabochon has been cut and polished with a smooth domed top and flat bottom, highlighting its rich red tones.
Treasured since antiquity and said to have been used as a lamp on Noah’s Ark, garnet remains one of the most popular gemstones today. It is also the official birthstone for January.
