Garnet Jewellery

Garnets make a striking centrepiece in a ring or any piece of jewellery, and are at home in a variety of different precious metals.

As a relatively hard gemstone, coming in at 6.5-7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, means this gemstone is perfect for earrings, pendants, or an exquisite garnet ring. 

The garnet is as glorious as it is versatile; looking impressive as a solitaire in a simple claw setting or—if you prefer a more intricate style—offset with stunning diamond surrounds. Pair them with diamond jewellery or other gemstone pieces and you’re sure to turn heads.

Garnets pair beautifully with diamond jewellery. The fiery red and pink tones of the garnet are spectacular against the white tones and brilliance of the diamond—creating a breathtaking aesthetic. The garnet can either be used as the centrepiece—if you prefer a bold and colourful look—or each stone can play an equal part, creating a delicate style.

Whether you wear each gemstone separately in a simple claw-set design, or pair them in a single piece, like in a diamond and garnet ring—showcasing the garnet inside a delicate halo setting—these gems always make a stunning pair.

Garnets are associated with the colour red, and as a result have been known to represent love, friendship, and passion. It’s also been known to symbolise protection, trust and commitment, making this a stunning gemstone a great choice for a friend or loved one.

Not only is garnet the birthstone for January, it is also known as the second and sixth wedding anniversary stone, which makes a garnet necklace or garnet earring a great gift idea for that special someone.

Historically believed to have protective qualities, they were also used as embellishments on royal garments, making the garnet a regal choice for any jewellery piece.
