Raw Garnet & Chrome Diopside Ring

This ring pairs a raw Garnet crystal from Namibia with Chrome Diopside from Russia — two stones with very different visual weight, brought together in one composition. The Garnet is left in its natural crystal form, with the kind of surface and geometry that makes raw mineral specimen jewelry so distinctive, while the Chrome Diopside adds a sharp green contrast at the side.

Garnet has a long history in jewelry and ornament, and in many cultures it was carried as a traveler’s stone. Ancient and medieval pieces featuring garnet have been found across Europe, Asia, and the Mediterranean, valued for both colour and durability. Chrome Diopside, by contrast, is more modern in the world of fine mineral appreciation, admired for its rich chromium-green tone and vivid clarity. Together, they create a ring that feels raw, grounded, and unexpectedly refined.

Garnet is often associated with protection, strength, and steady energy. Chrome Diopside is commonly linked to clarity, renewal, and seeing things more honestly. Together, they create a piece that feels focused and grounded — often chosen by those drawn to both stability and clear direction.

Stone: Garnet (Namibia), Chrome Diopside (Russia)

Source: Namibia, Russia

Formation:
Garnet is a silicate mineral group that commonly forms in metamorphic environments under heat and pressure, though it can also occur in some igneous rocks. Its well-defined crystal habits and naturally rich colour make raw garnet especially striking in specimen-based jewelry. Chrome Diopside is a chromium-bearing variety of diopside, typically formed in metamorphic and igneous settings, with its vivid green colour caused by chromium within the crystal structure.

Ring material: Brass with 18k gold-tone finish.
Alternative finishes and sterling silver versions may be available upon request, depending on the design.

Band: Adjustable open band

Size: One size — fits most (approx. US 7.5–9)
