Robert was given a handful of natural Garnet crystals that had been collected in Helena, Montana by the grandfather of a long-term family friend. Robert has faceted many of these gems over time including this 8x8mm heart-shaped gem, weighing just over 2 carats.  Robert set the gem in one of his own designs, a medium weight Sterling Silver Pendant.
 
For this Pendant, we recommend a  20” Medium Rope Sterling Silver Chain, #1125.
 
Garnet is the January Birthstone.
