1. History
Garnets are a group of silicate minerals that have been used since the Bronze Age as gemstones and abrasives, making them one of the oldest gem families in use; the name garnet derives from the Latin granatum, meaning pomegranate seed, referring to its colour and form. The group has a varied chemical composition and gem-quality varieties are typically deep red, spanning wine-red to deep purple-red, and have long been regarded as stones of strength, vitality and protection widely used in jewellery and amulets.

Garnet comes from India, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Tanzania and the United States; it forms in metamorphic rocks and some igneous rocks, with different species varying considerably in composition and colour. This item is a tumbled stone; the product page lists the material as Garnet, the product type as Tumbled Stone and the quantity as a set of 12-18 stones, showing striking deep red hues from rich burgundy to wine tones with a glassy polished surface that catches light beautifully.
