Faceting turns deep red garnet into a sphere that catches light on its many flat faces. These giant spheres are natural garnet and feel surprisingly heavy in the hand.
The facets let each sphere sit steady on a flat surface, so it needs no stand. It makes a meaningful January birthday gift, since garnet is the January birthstone, and a striking piece for any collector who appreciates something different from a smooth sphere.
Each numbered option is pictured on its own, so the piece you see is the piece you receive. Spheres are about 2.5 to 2.75 inches across and weigh about 585 to 685 grams. Sphere 5 is the heaviest.
About Garnet
Garnet is a large group of silicate minerals with a hardness of 6.5 to 7.5. It is usually deep red but also comes in orange, green, yellow, purple and black, and it is the birthstone for January.
Stone Meaning: Garnet is traditionally associated with passion and devotion.
