Garnets can be found in jewellery from all eras and on all continents. In late Roman times they were set in gold, in the Rococo period they were cut into flat panels and in the 19th century they were assembled in large numbers in Bohemia to form stars and necklaces. Here is a vintage ring from the last third of the last century, the design of which was developed entirely from the 19th century tradition. A large, oval faceted garnet is surrounded by eight smaller garnets, forming the center of the boat-shaped ring face. Such arrangements, which form blossoms or stars, were already being put together in the 19th century to create new necklaces, bracelets or brooches. The garnets are set in 8-karat yellow gold, whereas similar 19th century garnet jewelry was almost always made of gold-plated tombac.
