Ode to Bohemian Garnets – Ageless Heirlooms


WithJanuary ending, I believed what much better time than now to highlight a few of my preferred antique garnet pieces.There is something about an extremely deep, fancy Victorian garnet treasure that warms me up throughout what seems like unfavorable 25 degree weather condition.

Fun reality: The schedule of the deep dark bohemian garnet increased with the discovery of huge quantities of bohemian garnet in Central Europe around1500 Bohemian garnet mining and production focused around these deposits and reached its height in the late 1800 s.
