This pendant with four garnets brings out the deep, dark red colour of the stone, at times shifting into purple. The faceted cut breaks the light into small glints that bring the surface of the stone to life with every movement of the head. The classic, understated form means the pendant sits well along the neckline, without overwhelming the neck or drawing attention away from the face. Its medium size and light weight of 0.8 g make it a piece you barely notice you're wearing.

Each of the four garnets was inspected individually and hand-selected for colour saturation and clarity, which is why it offers exceptional quality at a price that remains reasonable. Silver and precious metals are rising in price, and good stones in this colour are becoming harder to find, so today's price for this pendant makes sense. The setting is made of refined European silver 925, coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface from tarnishing and loss of shine. The alloy is free from nickel and other allergenic additives, so the pendant can be worn without worrying about skin irritation. The metal bears a maker's mark registered with the French assay office, confirming its origin, and the European quality of craftsmanship is evident in the precision with which each stone is set.

For everyday wear, this pendant pairs well with a loose linen shirt open at the neck or a simple cotton blouse - natural fabrics bring out the calm, classic character of the design. The deep red of the garnets draws the eye against light, muted colours, without needing any extra jewellery. All it takes is a bare neckline for the four garnets to show off their colour in full.
