14ct White Gold, Green Garnet & Diamond Cluster Earrings

498S
Written by Olly Gerrish

Green garnets or Demantoid garnets as they are known, are wonderful stones that are a lovely apple green colour. Although garnets have been known since ancient times, the demantoid variety was not discovered until 1868 in Russia’s western central Ural Mountains. Miners were immediately stunned by the highly refractive nature of the gem material. They began comparing it to diamond and referred to it as “demantoid”, from the French “demant” meaning diamond. The reason is obvious, with its high brilliance and dispersion. These bright apple green stones are comparatively rare and very expensive. Each green garnet is surrounded by a ring of diamonds in 14ct white gold. A beautiful pair of earrings for that special occasion!
