X Large Green Garnet Ring, Horizontal

Natural raw green garnet copper solitaire ring, handmade with love and care. Size of gemstone is 19-22 mm.

Please allow 3-5 working days for your ring to be created in your ring size.

Each piece comes beautifully packaged, ready for gifting, with the relevant gemstone info card, thank you note and care instructions. 

The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!) 

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available here) Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.

About Green Garnet:

Garnets come in a wide variety of colours and although the most famous colour is deep red, some popular species include the green garnet. These belong to the andradite and grossular garnets.

There are two species that fall under the grossular garnets, the Tsavorite that features a chrome green colour and the Grossularite that is yellow green in colour. The term grossular derives from the botanical name for gooseberries, which is grossularia, in reference to its colour.
