Garnet is a set of closely related minerals sharing the same crystal structure while varying in chemical composition. Red is the most common and abundant color, but garnet has been found in nearly every color—from oranges and browns to bright greens. Garnet forms in metamorphic rock on every continent and has been prized throughout history. These oval faceted garnets are offered in A Quality, making them well-suited for fine jewelry setting and resale applications.
