**Please note that when purchasing a stone, we do not send just the stone itself. In purchasing a Mine Stone, you are reserving that stone in order to work with one of our custom designers to build the perfect ring for your stone!
Welcome to the “Staghead Mine”! The mine is home to our hand-selected collection of ethically sourced, extremely unique, and rare gemstones. These stones were curated because they cannot be found anywhere else and possess outstanding qualities that deserve to be highlighted by truly custom rings!
Start With Your Stone!
Purchasing a stone from the mine will reserve it for you, allowing you to design the ring of your dreams around a unique stone and create a truly meaningful symbol of your love!
Shortly after purchasing, you will be emailed by one of our custom ring designers to get started on the design of your custom engagement ring. Once you have finalized your design, please note that custom commissioned rings always have the possibility of taking longer than our standard 8-week lead time. Designing and bringing a new design to life takes extra time and care to ensure the durability and quality of your custom piece.
0.62ct (5.9x5.1mm) Fantasy Marquise-Cut Dragon Garnet
Crafted with precision and skill, this marquise-cut Gem boasts a series of carefully arranged facets that enhance its brilliance and fire, creating a mesmerizing play of light that dances across its surface. This Dragon Garnet emerges as a jewel of unparalleled elegance and enchantment. Found amidst the rugged landscapes of Tanzania, this gemstone possesses a fiery allure reminiscent of the legendary dragons that inspire its name. This variety of garnets was recently discovered in Tanzania in 2022.
What truly sets the Dragon Garnet apart, however, is its character. Each gemstone is unique, bearing distinctive inclusions, patterns, and formations that add depth and personality to its appearance. These natural quirks and imperfections serve as a testament to the gemstone's authenticity and organic origin, imbuing it with a sense of raw beauty and individuality.
Dragon Garnet has a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scale. The Mohs Scale is a system used to grade the hardness of minerals ranging from 1-10. For reference, diamonds are rated 10 on the Mohs scale, as they are the hardest mineral and can only be scratched by other diamonds. Talc has a rating of 1 on the Mohs’ Scale and can be easily scratched and crushed.
This stone is photographed in professional studio lighting that mimics natural sunlight of 5500 degrees kelvin and videoed outdoors the same.
For care and cleaning, we strongly recommend using soapy water and a soft brush as the safest way to clean your jewelry, avoiding ultrasonic and steam cleaners. We also suggest avoiding extreme heat as it has the potential to harm the color variation of your stone. To be safe, remove your jewelry while enjoying a soak in the hot tub or steam in the sauna! You will also want to avoid strong household chemicals and cleaners such as bleach.
