Garnet Pendant

While we talk about a garnet pendant in this report, you could choose the gemstone of your choice when ordering the piece. Keep in mind that this is a large red garnet measuring around 15x7mm, some gems could be very expensive if ordered in this size. Science has today confirmed that, garnets exist in a range of colors but, there is little doubt that red remains the favorite. This custom pendant from Kaisilver is a fine jewel, it is crafted by skilled artisans and no ready molds or blocks are used. This also means that, you can request for design modifications and a change in dimensions. This can turn out to be very useful when, you wish to moderate the size or price of the pendant. 

Garnets have been known for at least 2,000 years, they were at that time presumed to always be red. Interestingly people did manage to differentiate between red garnet and ruby. This even when the methods used to identify crystals and gems were quite primitive in those days. The belief that garnets encourage boldness and creativity is centuries old, many believe in this even today. With such a long history it is no surprise that, the birthstone charts assign a special place to the gemstone. Garnet heads the charts and is designated as the birthstone for the month of January. 

We probably mentioned in this report that, the PG2000 is a large garnet pendant. So is it fair to refer to the center marquise garnet as a large or big gem. It is true that red garnet is not specifically rare but, large sizes are surely not a common sight. This Kaisilver custom pendant, centers a big marquise garnet with a size of about 15x7mm. Even if you consider a +/- 1mm size, this is a big gemstone by all means. Typically this would require a piece of rough garnet that, is around 20mm to 25mm long (2cm-2.5cm). Talk to any garnet miner and he will tell you that, these large gems have come down to a small trickle. So we can confidently claim that, this a garnet pendant with an unusually large gem. For you it means that, the jewel is exclusive and unique. It is very unlikely that you will come across anyone wearing any jewel, that is encrusted with such a large red garnet.

Customizing Tips: Remember that this is a custom garnet pendant, you should make sure that your preferences are incorporated into the design when you order. Here are some ideas to get you going, the final call is always yours. The gem in this pendant is big. This is a size that would be near impossible to find in the case of certain gems like ruby, sapphire, tanzanite and emerald - we would therefore recommend a gem size of 10x5 or 9x5mm for these gemstones. The dimensions of the pendant would be adjusted accordingly. Cutting a marquise gemstone is not easy, but we custom cut each gem inhouse. You could also consider going for a 11x9mm or 12x10mm oval gemstone, the basic shape of the pendant would remain the same but the gem setting would be a bit rounded. This is one option that might impress serious gem lovers. The oval gemstone obviously packs more glitter and sparkle as compared to the marquise gem. The loop for the chain in this garnet gemstone pendant is located on the back of the jewel. A pendant of this type is referred to as a 'slider'. A more conventional option would be for the bale (chain loop) to be placed on top of the pendant. You can decide which one suits you and we will customize the design accordingly. One exciting idea would be to order a the pendant with a pair of matching earrings. We can discuss the dimensions and other details for the earrings as we move ahead.
