Mandarin Garnet

Red Pyrope and purple Alamandine garnets were set in Ecclesiastical jewellery and were popular with the victorians

The fabulous mandarin orange garnet was recently discovered in the 1990’s in Namibia, where the mines are now exhausted. These luscious and intense bright orange gems are millions of years old and evoke the fiery spectacular African sunsets.
