03. THE FIRST GLANCE
The Moment It Captures You
The red of garnet is like a fire that remains unextinguished in the night. Deep wine, warm vermilion, red close to black. Each stone holds its own heat.
04. BORN FROM EARTH
A Miracle Born of the Earth
Garnet is not the name of a single mineral, but a collective name for a group of minerals with similar chemical compositions. Differences in composition grow it into many colors: red, orange, green, brown.
05. MYTH & COSMOS
Myth & Stars
In ancient Egypt, red garnet adorned the jewelry and funerary goods of kings; in ancient Rome it was treasured as a seal. In the Middle Ages it was loved by clergy and nobles.
In the brand's approach, garnet is linked to Mars. Mars is the planet that symbolizes passion, drive, courage, and the heat of life. We layer the story of the fire within red garnet with the force that pushes forward. Common garnet is treated separately from hessonite, which has a specific correspondence in Jyotish.
06. THE BEAUTY WITHIN
One Stone, One Character
Even within the same red, there is the brightness that lets light through, the depth of wine, the vividness that recalls flame. Garnet is a gem whose depth of color is itself its character.
07. ARTIST'S NOTE
Through the Eyes of MEGUMI HARUNA
Looking at garnet, I think of something that goes on burning quietly. It gives off a strong light, yet feels somehow secret. That red gently lights the courage within the one who wears it.
