Estate Silver Garnet Necklace
$295
-
Thanks to the incredible durability of garnet, remnants of garnet jewelry have been found dating as far back as the Bronze Age. Other records cite its use in 3100 BC as an inlay gemstone in Egyptian jewelry and carvings.
They were so valued in Egyptian culture that they were a prominent part of adornments worn by pharaohs which were later entombed with them as prized possessions. While perhaps being especially popular today as January’s birthstone, garnet has extensive lore as a valued gemstone throughout history.
This estate sterling silver drop-style lavalier necklace features a total of 10 faceted garnets including a center pear-shaped garnet and 9 marquise-shaped garnets.
The necklace measures 20″ long and has a total weight of 3.20 grams. It is secured with a lobster claw clasp. Stamped 925.
