Garnet Jewelry in Grand Cayman

Deep red garnet is a characterful stone with real personality, one of the group we set alongside play-of-colour opal and fresh green peridot. Most people picture the classic wine red, but garnet is a whole mineral family and also occurs in orange, green and pink.

It is harder than opal or turquoise and takes a good polish, so garnet works in rings as well as pendants and earrings. It is January's birthstone, and its depth of colour against yellow gold is what keeps it in demand for anniversary and birthday pieces.
