Luxurious ring with pomegranate

Stone features and benefits

Like other gems, garnet has a crystalline, regular structure. It does not stand in the first row of precious stones, since it does not fully satisfy the basic requirements for the first row stones. The main advantages of these precious crystals: beauty, durability, rarity. But for the beauty and rarity of some varieties of pomegranate, this stone can successfully compete with such aristocrats among the gifts of the depths of the Earth, like opal, sapphire, emerald, ruby, diamond.

For a long time, one type of pomegranate was considered a Cape ruby. In terms of durability, only Almandine grenades can approach this range. The abrasive effect of dust eventually leads to the clouding of the stone; mechanical damage is also possible when using garnet stones in rings, rings, bracelets. But the beauty and rarity of some pomegranates decide the choice of lovers of jewelry with precious stones in favor of fiery red and emerald green pomegranates.

In his youth and youth, the mention of this stone is invariably associated with the story of A. Kuprin. Something mysterious and mystical sounded in the words "Garnet bracelet", "garnet". The features of this stone are enclosed in its various modifications in chemical composition, hardness, color. By hardness, a variety of pomegranate - almandine has 7.5 units on the Mohs scale. Diamond hardness in this scale is 10 points.

In their chemical composition, garnets belong to the group of granites, rock-forming minerals, but only some of them are used for jewelry. These are silicates of the SiO4 group with some elements. To complete our knowledge, let us name six crystals: Pirop, Almandin, Spessartin, Grossulyar, Andradite and Uvarovit.

The most common pomegranate is considered to be Grossular (from a botanical gooseberry). Many of its crystals in shape and color resemble this berry. The color of Grossulyara can be pink, reddish-brown, orange, yellowish, pale olive-green. These stones are not transparent enough, therefore they do not belong to expensive gems.

Pirop was considered the best for jewelers. Because of its ruby-red color, Pirop, like Almandin, is sometimes called a carbuncle (sparkle-lat.). Pyrop crystals reach the size of a pigeon's egg. The Almandin garnet is very interesting. Its color is crimson and violet-bluish-red. If there is more iron in it, then the color can be brown, black, opaque and unsuitable for jewelry processing.

But crimson cabochon Almandine products have always been in great demand. Unfortunately, there are very few usable Almandine crystals for jewelers. In Germany, in the Spessart region, a beautiful pink-red garnet was found, called Spessarine. When cutting, this garnet becomes a real find for connoisseurs of gems, many jewelers would like to work with it, but nature still keeps beautiful pebbles from human eyes.

Andradite was previously considered to be an ordinary stone, but when the variety called “Demantoid” was discovered, it immediately became a row of expensive stones. Its crystals can have an emerald green color, which can change to pistachio and olive green. His diamond brilliance and the possibility of a diamond cut put Demantoid in a row of expensive stones. Unfortunately, its relative softness (6.5 points on the Mohs scale) does not allow these stones to be inserted into rings, rings.

Uvarovit-bright green pomegranate. Hard enough, but does not have large crystals, because jewelers rarely processed, but more often used by lovers of stone in handicrafts.

Colors

The main color of pomegranate is red with different shades. A rich red garnet in a luxury ring for a man or a woman is a sign of perseverance and energy, rage and obsession. Red stones speak of love and passion. The dark red garnet is the stone of those born in January. Red-violet garnet in the men's rings means the desire of young people to be active, willing to take their rightful place in life, growth in their careers.

Green color of a transparent stone for people with fine psychology, high logic, analytical thinking. Rings with such grenades are suitable for lawyers, attorneys, prosecutors, investigators. Yellowish green and yellow stone - for those who protect the weak and the oppressed, they are always ready to help the offended and weak.

The form

Pomegranate crystals are formed in a cubic syngology, and as a result of weathering and reeling can be obtained almost spherical shape. Pomegranates glitter with glassy glitter with a transition to resinous. The size of the pomegranate is small, mostly as a coffee bean, which interferes with jewelry processing. Therefore, the cabochon shape of three kinds is most often used. A simple cabochon that has one flat side and one convex, convex-concave cabochon and double convex cabochon.

Most clearly shows its properties of the gem of garnet convex-concave shape. With artificial lighting, a stone in a luxurious ring lights up thickly with red living lights.

A double convex cabochon is used less frequently. Red garnets are made in the form of hearts, drops and other smooth shapes. Larger grenades are cut. This gives the grenade the look of expensive stones. The diamond-cut technology has centuries of experience and can be applied not only to diamonds. When the garnet is cut brilliantly, it is often applied to the top, and the bottom is stepped.

It looks especially beautiful in a luxurious female ring cut Demantoid pale or dark emerald green. Bright gloss and dispersion are very well manifested here. The beauty and elegance of the treated stones in rings with a complex design solution are manifested more effectively.

How to choose and who will suit

A universal decoration can be considered a garnet in the frame of a silver ring. Such fine jewelry work will suit young girls and slender older women. Light transparent stones will look good on women under the age of 35 and in a silver frame, girls are better to give rings with pink garnet, women aged have dark shades.

In the luxurious and expensive rings of complex and elegant shape, garnet with emerald, topaz or sapphire are harmoniously combined. Top combinations with diamonds from diamonds, but this raises the price of work at times.

Red rings are preferred in gold rings. A ring with a red pomegranate in a girl is a sign of an approaching wedding. A special role for red garnets in the rings for men. It is a symbol of strength, obsession, self-confidence, perseverance in achieving the goal. But even bright red garnet-carbuncle will not bring the desired results to weak-willed men who are not ready to fight.

What to wear

Men should wear a gold or silver pomegranate ring with a business or evening suit. It does not look like a combination with a tracksuit, jeans, especially with patches and holes. Small rings with garnets of red and dark brown can be worn with jeans of a good cut and brand production. The combination of such jeans with knitted sweaters, sweaters and pullovers will not cause complaints from stylists.

The choice of rings with garnet for women's dresses has no real boundaries. Pantsuits business women, summer outfits for girls, casual dresses for women for 30, 35, 45, 50 60, outfits for a dinner party, for theater, parties, meetings, solemn meetings, etc. For open elegant dresses, pomegranate of a transparent green, yellow-green color in a silver frame in combination with cubic zirconias, chrysolite is better suited.A silver ring with a pink garnet in a mix with dark red cabochons will look good.

Dark-colored dresses closed to the floor are a perfect background for gold and garnet. Golden rings with grenades of various forms, combinations, combinations give each woman a unique opportunity to be an individual, a bright star in the sky, not afraid to meet the “clone” at any event.

How to care

Rings with pomegranate must be periodically cleaned of dirt, dust, various layers. Prepare a soap or salt solution, preferably from sea or Himalayan salt, a soft brush, cloth for cleaning glasses lenses. After cleaning, rinse with warm water, not allowing long contact with water, wipe with a soft cloth. Frequent cleaning harms the stone, as it extinguishes its fiery energy. After cleansing for several days, do not wear jewelry to restore natural energy.

How to distinguish from fakes

Do not rush to immediately buy suitable in appearance and price of rings with garnet. Look at other samples, maybe even in different jewelry stores. Finally, you notice a grenade in a mandrel that attracts you all the time, which means it is your best choice. But here you can get to the fake. You can try to agree with the jewelry store on the possible return of the product after checking in the jewelry workshop, which the store owners most likely will not do.

Then we will undertake to check the jewelry for the authenticity of the stone We must remember that the garnet has a slight magnetization. Therefore, we will prepare a magnet, a plastic needle and a school wooden or plastic ruler 25-30 cm long. Put a ring with garnet on one end of the ruler, move the needle under the ruler so as to balance both ends of the ruler or as close as possible to the position when the end of the ruler with the ring will minimally outweigh the empty end and bring the magnet to the stone without touching it. The ruler trembled or its end rose with a pomegranate - a real stone!

Pharmaceutical scales can also be used. To do this, put a ring with pomegranate on one bowl, balance the scales with a selection of weights. To prevent the metal bowl from affecting the magnet, place a champagne cork under the ring with garnet. We bring the magnet to the grenade, the scales faltered - the stone is real!

Fashion rings

Pomegranate rings that are considered fashionable are not necessarily expensive. The rings themselves can be gold, silver, nickel silver or stainless steel. The main thing is the skill of jewelers in any frame to reveal the peculiarity of the stone, its beauty, the play of color and brilliance. Gold and silver rings with pomegranate combinations with cubic zirconias, Octagon chrysolite won particular popularity among fashionable rings.
