Gemstones: Garnet

Garnet is in fact a huge gemstone family which includes very different colors, but we still think of the garnet as a deep red or brownish gemstone.
In fact, the brownish-red variety is the “Almandine” garnet which is the most common garnet in Europe and has been often used by the European Jeweller during the XIIX and XIX centuries, even though garnet was used since the Antiquity as a talisman or for the medicine.
One of the other much used garnet in Europe is the “Pyrope”. Its name comes from the Latin pyropos which means “fire-eyed” because of the vivid red color of this garnet.
It main deposits in Europe are in the present Czech Republic, and it has been used for the jewels of the Czech Crown.
Because of its color, it has often replace rubies or even been confused with rubies.
The most expensive garnets are the “Malaya”: these color-change garnets that go from sky-blue to purplish-pink depending on the light, have been recently discovered in East Africa which has the only few deposits worldwide.
Then comes the “Spessartite”, a vivid orange garnet with its most sought after “fanta” shade (fancy vivid orange). The best-quality spessartite with the “fanta” color are called “Mandarin”.
The name “Spessartite” comes from Main Spessart which is a district in Bavaria, Germany, where the first deposits have been discovered.
Nowadays, the other big Spessartite deposits are in Madagascar.
The Demantoid garnets are also very famous for having the “emerald-green” color and the same sheen as diamond. The best-quality demantoid are found in Russia (near the Ural Mountain) and have adorned the Tsars jewels and crowns.
Then comes the Tsavorite garnet that can only be found in Kenya, near the Tsavo National Park.
This specific garnet was found in the 60’s and has been described as the best natural substitute to emerald.
Tsavorite garnet is naturally vivid green, which is quite rare, and has the garnet strength which makes it easier to use in jewelry than emerald.
The other garnet variety have darker colors or can’t be used in jewelry because they’re opaque and unattractive.
Gemstones Color: Red
A chemically pure and structurally perfect diamond is perfectly transparent with no hue, or color. However, in reality almost no gem-sized natural diamonds are absolutely perfect. The color of a diamond may be affected by chemical impurities and/or structural defects in the crystal lattice. Depending on the hue and intensity of a diamond's coloration, a diamond's color can either detract from or enhance its value. For example, most white diamonds are discounted in price when more yellow hue is detectable, while intense pink or blue diamonds (such as the Hope Diamond) can be dramatically more valuable. Out of all colored diamonds, red diamonds are the rarest.
Gemstones Cut: Heart
Heart Cut
Heart shaped diamonds are basically a pear-shaped diamond with a cleft at the top. Heart shaped diamonds are sometimes considered romantic, but they can be difficult to cut. The skill of the cutter greatly determines the beauty of heart shaped diamonds.
Setting: Claw
Karat of Gold:
14k
Gold Color:
14k
14K also know as 585 because it is 58.5% pure gold. In our opinion this gold is the most practical way of manufacturing diamond jewelry because of its hardness and overall quality. 14K gold is ideal because it has the perfect balance of gold and other metals making it very malleable and very sturdy when completed. 14K gold is the best bet for any jewelry that weighs over 20 grams.

Total Weight: 7.15 Grams (The final weight of the item may vary slightly)
When dealing with precious metals the total value is determined by the weight of the metal, usually per gram and the labor involved in working with it (such as polishing, casting etc.). The heavier the weight of the metal in your jewelry the more value it has and the more you will have to pay for it. Below is a list of weights that we recommend when purchasing a certain type of jewelry.
Mens Rings - 12-25 Grams
Mens Earrings- 1-5 Grams
Mens Braceletes 30-150 Grams
Mens Chains -20-150 Grams
Mens Pendants/Crosses - 20-60 Grams
Note: This weight mostly pretrial to gold jewelry.
