Regal Red Garnet Emerald. ORIGIN: The Ural Mountains. Russia. 19th Century. CLASSIFICATION: Red Garnet Faceted Octagon. SIZE: Length: 9mm. Width: 6mm. Depth: 5mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: Approximately 2.03 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: Ancient Christians regarded the blood-red garnet to be symbolic of Christ’s blood sacrifice. According to ancient Hebrew mythology. A giant garnet provided interior lighting for Noah's Ark. It is also believed that garnet, described as“nopek” was one of the twelve gemstones described in the Bible in Exodus 28:17-20 as adorning Aaron’s breastplate, representing the twelve tribes of ancient Israel. Ancient cultures including the Celts, Greeks, Hebrews, Persians and Romans highly valued garnet. The ancient Persians regarded garnet as a royal stone, and only royalty was allowed to possess the gemstone. Most ancient Mediterranean populations believed that a garnet could give its wearer guidance in the night, allowing them to see when others could not. Here's a gorgeous. Richly textured, regally hued red faceted garnet gemstone from the Ural Mountains of Russia, where the production of garnet has gone on for many centuries. The gemstone was hand crafted and faceted by a 19th century Russian artisan, part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia. This particular variety of garnet is especially favored for its dark, regal, blood red tones. The gemstone is very clean, crystal clear, and exquisitely colored. It possesses great lustre, lots of flash, and at least to the eye, is essentially flawless. It is truly a gorgeously colored, brilliant, sparkling semi-precious gemstone. This gorgeous specimen was han
