How the colour change works
Colour-change garnets absorb light differently depending on the light source. Daylight brings out the brown tones, while warm incandescent or candlelight pulls the stone toward red. For best results, view it in a lit room and then near a warm bulb or by a window.

∙ Custom rings and pendants where the stone will be seen in different lighting
