Description

These spessartine garnet earrings feature raw dodecahedral crystals in their natural 12-sided form, deep amber-orange with a rough, faceted surface, as warm copper grows around each stone completely. A grounding, sculptural pair for everyday wear or a meaningful gift.

Spessartine garnet is associated with creativity, confidence, and emotional balance. January birthstone. Wear it when you need to feel energized and steady at the same time.

Why Spessartine Garnet

Spessartine garnet is a manganese aluminum silicate mineral in the garnet family. Long associated with vitality and creative fire. Chosen for its natural dodecahedral form — a geometry that occurs in garnet crystals and nowhere else — its warm amber-orange color, and its grounding quality. January birthstone. Sacral chakra. No mystical claims. Just a beautiful stone with a meaning that fits real life.

Spessartine Garnet Earrings: Materials & Specifications

  • Stone: Natural spessartine garnet, raw dodecahedral crystals, deep amber-orange. Stones are matched for size and tone; slight natural variation is expected.
  • Metal: Electroformed copper. Antique finish with living patina.
  • Finding: Niobium ear wires (hypoallergenic, ideal for sensitive ears).
  • Dimensions: Approximately 25mm (1 inch) drop per earring.
  • Weight: Approximately 28g (1 oz) per pair. Lightweight for all-day wear.
  • Origin: Handcrafted in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

How These Handmade Gemstone Earrings Are Made

Each pair of spessartine garnet earrings is made to order in my small Santa Fe studio. I hand-select and match every stone for its natural dodecahedral form and warm color, then encase each one in copper using traditional electroforming techniques. Copper grows directly around the stone through an electrical process. No mass production, no shortcuts. Every handmade gemstone earring pair from this studio is one of a kind.

A Note on Stone Matching

Because these are natural stones, each pair is matched by hand for size and color. Slight variation between the two stones is part of what makes them handmade and real.

Care

Remove before swimming, showering, or applying lotions. Store dry. Polish with a soft cloth to maintain shine or let the patina deepen naturally — antique copper develops a beautiful living finish over time. Garnet is durable (7–7.5 Mohs) but treat gently to avoid hard impacts on the raw crystal edges.

Gift Packaging

Every order arrives gift-ready with natural materials and a handwritten note card. Add your message in the order notes.
