Garnet isn't just one stone. It's a family of related minerals in deep red, orange, green, and even black. Almandine and pyrope are the most common and give garnet its reputation as the wine-dark red you see in jewelry.
We bring these tumbled stones in from Minas Gerais, Brazil.
The name comes from Latin 'granatum' for the resemblance of red garnet crystals to pomegranate seeds.
Garnet has long been used in practices around a quiet sense of renewal, settling into who you already are, and opening to connection, with yourself and others. It's traditionally linked to the root chakra. If that resonates, hold one in your non-dominant hand for a few breaths when things feel shaky. There's no single right way to carry it.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
A starting place for your own quiet practice.
