Garnets are among the oldest precious stones known to mankind. Even in ancient times they were prized for their fiery colour, reminiscent of life force and blood. In Egypt they were worn as amulets providing protection in this life and the afterlife, in Rome they were a symbol of friendship and loyalty. In the Middle Ages, the garnet was believed to protect warriors and bring courage. Traditionally associated with love, passion and energy, it is also considered to be a stone that enhances vitality.

The almandine garnet is one of the best known and most valuable varieties of garnet. Its deep red to burgundy color symbolizes passion, strength and life energy. Since ancient times it has been considered a stone of courage and protection. It gained popularity in Europe and Asia, where it was set in jewellery and amulets. It is still sought after today for its beauty and rich history.
