American Gem Collection Lifeline

From the red veins deep within the Mountains of Montana comes American Gem Collection piece #66 “Lifeline.” This pendant is crafted in 14k yellow gold and is adorned with 0.06 carats of diamonds, highlighting the 2.70 carat Montana Garnet. This amazingly rich red gem is a uniquely cut modified cushion. Large facets allow for a stunning play of color through this gem. The curved row of diamonds seemingly flows directly into the stone, while the warm contour of yellow gold, originating from the diamond “lifeline,” delicately wraps around the garnet center. The shape is reminiscent of an artistic heart. This Montana gem has had a long history in legend and lore. It is said that the deep red color of this stone symbolizes love and passion for your calling. Legend also says that garnet is a stone of protection and has been used by people as a talisman for thousands of years. It has even been said that Noah used garnet stones in the lanterns on the Ark, for guidance and light. Apothecaries have said that the deep red tone of this gem is linked with the heart and  life energy. Follow your heart, and let garnet be your lifeline!This pendant has sold!
