Garnets Garnet is actually a general name for a group of minerals with different colors but similar chemical composition. The word garnet comes from the Latin granatas, meaning grain, because garnet crystals are rounded and have a striking resemblance to pomegranate seeds. While garnets can be in a rainbow range of colors from forest green through deep burgundy, most people associate garnet with the red stones pyrope and almandite.

Mystic topaz You may have seen a ring or pendant flashing a veritable rainbow of hues and wondered, "What is mystic topaz?"

Mystic topaz is a fusion of naturally-mined topaz stone and a laboratory process. By applying a thin layer of titanium oxide via physical vapor deposition, otherworldly effects are created. The process is similar to that which creates carnival glass, which your mother or Grandmother may have collected.
