Golden Hessonite Garnet
Golden Hessonite Garnet: Rare Stone and highly sought after.
Grenat hessonite, also known as cinnamon stone, is a type of garnet gemstone that ranges in color from orange-brown to reddish-brown. It is a variety of grossular garnet and gets its name from the Greek word “hesson,” meaning inferior, because its hardness and density are lower than other types of garnet.
Hessonite garnets are often used in jewelry, particularly in rings and pendants. They are also used for decorative purposes such as in beads, and inlays.
