Thank you KT 🥹🥰 I’ve had so many people complain about January birthstone, have to set them straight! 😅

Beautiful breakdown of why garnets deserve more attention. The Georgian flat-cut pieces with foil backing really are stunning, that tecnique maximizes depth in a way modern cuts don't. I inherited a small garnet ring and never quite appreciated it untill reading this.

Garnets are so underrated. I have a pair of rhodolite studs and a tsavorite pinky ring. Love all the other garnet types too! I call spessartite the « orange Fanta » gemstone lol
