The English name of this gemstone “Garnet” comes from the Latin word “Granatum”, which means like a seed, because the crystal shape and color of the gemstone is highly similar to that of a pomegranate seed, hence the name “Garnet”.

In Greek civilization, the garnet signified the fidelity of love. Legend has it that Hades, the king of the underworld, used the garnet as a gift to Persephone so that she could return to the underworld each year, symbolizing union and undying love.
