About
Garnet beads are deep red first — almandine and pyrope in wine tones, rhodolite a step toward raspberry — and the same stone runs to cinnamon-orange hessonite, green tsavorite and grossular, and purple. The color is natural and untreated. Faceted garnet beads carry the most light, from 2mm accents to 8mm rounds; smooth rounds read darker and richer, and rough nuggets and chips keep the raw crystal look. Beside carnelian, smoky quartz or gold, garnet is the red a piece is built around.
