Garnet
Garnet is a versatile gemstone family prized in the jewellery trade for its wide colour palette—from deep reds to vibrant greens and exotic hues like spessartine and tsavorite—and its association with both classic and contemporary styles. Reliable and relatively affordable, garnet offers designers and retailers opportunities in bridal, fashion, and statement pieces, handling well in standard faceted and cabochon settings. Jewellery Focus provides trade-driven coverage of garnet’s relevance in the UK market, including sourcing trends, pricing shifts, grading standards, design inspiration, and consumer demand patterns. Our reporting supports gem dealers, manufacturers, designers, and retailers in understanding garnet’s commercial potential and navigating its evolving role across mid-market and artisan jewellery segments.
