The gemstone is mostly perceived to be a rich red hue. Indeed, its name derives from the latin granatus, meaning seed, a reference to the vibrancy of the pomegranate. The fruit was associated with fertility; hence the gemstone was often given as a love token or as a sign of friendship and trust. And yet, garnet comes in a rainbow of colours. Mostly sourced from Africa, Namibia is where lighter shades of the stone are found, such as green and yellow, whilst the darker, more orange and tangerine shades are located in Tanzania and Madagascar.
