Bohemian Garnet Teardrop Pendant and Earrings

Prized for its dark blood-red, uniform color, the Bohemian garnet has been, and still is, adorning the most opulent as well as the humblest of jewelry pieces. Mined and processed in the territory of today’s Czechia, the garnet remains the most prized national gemstone. The garnet stone and jewelry made with it offer a unique and one-of-a-kind gift as well as family heirloom.

The jewelry is Rhodium plated over sterling silver. Rhodium provides longer protection against tarnishing and gives a beautiful shine to the metal that surrounds the garnets. Limited quantity. More designs available in the Museum’s brick store. Call 319.362.8500, x-114 or email store@ncsml.org to inquire.
