{"product_id":"garnet-triple-wrap-bracelet-wine-red-high-clarity","title":"Garnet Triple-Wrap Bracelet — Wine Red, High Clarity","description":"\u003cp\u003eGarnet is usually sold so dark that it looks black. This strand is sorted for clarity, which means the wine red comes through in ordinary light instead of only when you hold it up to a lamp. The beads are small enough to wrap three times, and the elastic core means no clasp against the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural garnet, clarity-sorted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracelet type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Triple wrap, elastic, no clasp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wraps three times around a 15-18 cm (5.9-7.1 in) wrist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout garnet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGarnet is a group of silicate minerals rather than one stone; the deep red beads in this bracelet are almandine or pyrope, both coloured by iron. Hardness runs 6.5 to 7.5 depending on the species, which makes garnet one of the more durable coloured stones used in beaded jewellery. Small garnet beads are often cut from material too dark to facet, which is why they read as near-black in low light and wine red when light passes through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a triple wrap, elastic strung on elastic with no clasp, and it wraps three times around a 15-18 cm (5.9-7.1 in) wrist. Because the core is elastic you wind it on rather than fasten it, so there is nothing to do up one-handed. If you need a different length, message us before ordering and we will tell you what is in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGarnet is hard and easy to live with. Wipe with a soft damp cloth, and store it away from softer stones such as malachite or lapis, which garnet can scratch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShipping and returns\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are processed in 1-3 business days from our Shenzhen studio.

It is a sorting step, not a treatment: nothing was heated, filled or dyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many wraps?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree around a wrist of roughly 15-18 cm (5.9-7.1 in). Because it is elastic you can also wear it as a long loop, though it will sit loose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the red fade?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Garnet colour comes from iron in the crystal structure and does not fade with light the way dyed stones can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does delivery take?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are processed in 1-3 business days from our Shenzhen studio.
