Garnet is the gemstone of wine and the vine. As a group, garnets are widespread and include rose red to dark red pyrope, orange spessartine, green grossular, and cinnamon colored hessonite. The graduated flat teardrop gemstones in this 22" necklace are typical of pyrope garnet, whose deep wine-purple color results from trace amounts of chromium, titanium, and manganese. The teardrops range from approximately 5mm in length to approximately 12mm, and they are spaced with mellow citrine gemstones and 14kt gold-fill beads. This longer necklace makes a dramatic statement with pale colors, flowing easily and lightly. 14kt gold-fill toggle clasp.

Cost: $68.00 USD
