About this Item

Grape Garnet
two oval-cut purple grape garnets weighing approximately 4.53 ct
(2)

Oval Grape Garnet Earrings 2.28cts

Notes

This loose gemstone is paired with a CAD design that brings our gems to life as conceptualised made-up pieces of jewellery, a design collaboration between Strauss & Co and Taz Watson.

Brilliant coloured gemstones are challenging traditional diamonds as central pieces in jewellery design. When looking at the rich, vibrant hues in a grape garnet, it’s obvious why. Their luscious colour palette reminiscent of ripe grapes has taken the world by storm, shifting rising demand and adding a new dynamic to jewellery design.

Likely origin of these Grape Garnets is Mozambique
