Ant Hill Garnet

Color: Deep Red
Origin: Arizona

Product Details

Ant Hill Garnet, also known as Chrome Pyrope, is an extraordinary stone exclusively found on the Navajo Lands in the Four Corners region of Arizona. Anthill Garnets get their name as a result of how they are found and collected; gathered by hand after ants push the rough materials out of the earth as they build their homes, leaving pieces to ‘float’ to the surface. Only Navajo collectors born in the region have permission to gather these stones using a meticulous and intentional process, meaning this stone is a truly rare piece! This marquise brilliant cut gemstone possesses a rich historical and spiritual significance that deserves to be highlighted in a custom ring, bracelet or pendant!

Garnet has a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scale. Garnets are also the birthstone for January and are used to celebrate 2nd anniversaries.

We do not reserve stones for any customer expressing interest in a particular stone. You must complete the purchase of the stone to save and reserve it for yourself! For liability reasons, we will require a signature confirmation upon delivery of your custom ring regardless of the shipping option you select at checkout.
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! We are artists, not stone dealers, and our passion is working alongside our clients in designing unique and beautiful rings. We love nothing more than seeing custom rings completed and a client's dreams realized!

PRODUCTION TIMES

8 Weeks: Women's engagement rings & any ring with precious stones
8-10+ Weeks: Fully custom rings always have the possibility of taking longer than 8 weeks from the time the order is placed. Designing a custom commissioned ring takes time and extra care to ensure we can make the ring you have envisioned come to life. This extra time accounts for sourcing custom stones, new materials, CAD design, or the custom casting of an original design and the complexity of that design

PRODUCT PROTECTION PLAN

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with Extend to offer extensive coverage for your custom ring! The Protection Plan covers resizes, repairs, cleanings & polishings, and even loss or theft. Please visit Extend.com to view their coverage details.

Because orders containing a stone from the Staghead Mine are custom, Extend needs time to review the order information and to confirm that the stone is eligible for coverage which means the option to purchase the plan may not be available at the time of purchase. If you'd like to add the Protection Plan on after your purchase, please email us and we will get the information submitted for Extend to review and will then send you a link to purchase the Protection Plan!
