Almandine Garnet Gemstones

Almandine Garnet is a classic and widely recognized variety of garnet, prized for its deep red to purplish-red color and excellent durability. This natural gemstone is known for its rich, saturated tones and strong brilliance, making it a timeless choice for fine jewelry and gemstone collections.

With a hardness of 7–7.5 on the Mohs scale, almandine garnet offers good resistance to wear and is suitable for everyday jewelry. Most almandine garnets are natural and untreated, preserving their authentic color and clarity. Their high refractive properties give them a lively sparkle when faceted.

Almandine garnets are commonly sourced from regions such as India, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Africa.
