What is Garnet?
The rich maroon tones of garnet semi-precious gemstones reflect light beautifully. Garnet is all about vitality, believed to aid in manifesting and bringing good luck, as well as protection. It is also great for building self-confidence and clarifying one’s life purpose.
What is gold-fill?
Gold-filled materials are made by heat and pressure, bonding a 5%
layer of karat gold to a base metal. Gold-fill has an actual layer of karat gold that is
about 100 times thicker than plated gold which has about .05% gold. These pieces can
often last a lifetime without tarnishing.
