For centuries, the seductive red-glowing garnets have been used in a wide variety of jewellery. Large, precious stones once adorned the colorful necklaces of the Baroque and Rococo periods. The form of garnet jewelry that we most associate with this stone today - stars and flowers, densely studded with countless garnets - developed in the middle of the 19th century and quickly became a public favorite. This garnet bangle dates from the end of the 19th century. It features rose-cut Bohemian garnets of outstanding quality. They are set close together on the pleasantly rounded inside of the bangle, forming four rows that completely encircle the bangle. The design widens slightly in the middle. Typical of the time, the stones are set in tombac, which is completely unobtrusive on the front. Tombac is a brass alloy that was the usual metal for garnet jewelry in the 19th century. Nothing distracts from the gemstones, creating a magnificent band of red reflections.
