Let’s go back over 5,000 years to the Bronze Age, the jewel we call Garnet has a remarkably rich story. The Garnet jewels are the only gemstones believed to contain protective and caustic powers. The Crusaders set these gemstones of Garnet into their shield, believing they would be protected from all evil. And in some Asian cultures, Garnets were added to bullets, believing it would add destructive power to the bullet. Biblical mythology says when God’s rage clouded the earth with endless storms during the great flood, a radiant red Garnet guided Noah and his ark to safety. What a fascinating story.
