These pieces of Almandine Garnet on Calcite matrix are really lovely. The Garnet crystals sit proudly on the pale Calcite, creating a strong contrast between the deep, wine-red tones and the lighter host rock. The Garnets themselves are well-formed, natural and full of character. Some show a glossy surface, others are a little more textured, but each one has a rich, grounded presence.

I picked these because the colour and formation stood out straight away. They feel old and steady. Almandine Garnet has a strength to it. It brings a sense of grounding and quiet determination, while the Calcite adds a softer, clearer layer to the energy. Together they create a balanced piece that feels supportive and very real.
