Handmade Rhodolite Garnet Peacock Feather Necklace

Handmade Rhodolite Garnet Peacock Feather Necklace

Garnet is the birthstone for the month of January.

Garnet derives its name from the 14th‑century Middle English word ‘gernet’ meaning ‘dark red’ and the Latin word ‘garanatus’, which translates to ‘seed-like’. 

While red is its most common colour, this gem can also be found in shades of orange, green, peach, yellow, blue, purple, brown and pink. Unlike other minerals, Garnets are created from a variety of species and blends. 

Rhodolite is a hybrid of almandine and pyrope garnets. This jewel is valued for its sensuous appeal thanks to its colour, which can range from a deep purple-red to a lighter rose-red.

Rhodolite derives its name from the Greek term ‘rhodon’, which translates to ‘rose’. 

Unlike most coloured gemstones, natural rhodolites are typically eye-clean, which means they are free from inclusions or flaws that can be seen with the naked eye. The stone’s clarity and natural colour (devoid of any artificial enhancements) are what makes this gem one of the most valuable varieties of garnet.

All Garnet stones are said to inspire love and devotion, opening the heart, removing inhibition and improving confidence. 

Garnet is a stone that is all about love. It balances the emotions, inspires love and devotion and even balances the sex drive.
