What is this piece made of?

This piece contains: Yellow gold Garnet

Yellow gold

Gold has long been celebrated for its warmth, its glow and its remarkable versatility. Yellow gold, in particular, is the metal in its most traditional expression — the colour that traverses centuries and civilisations. Designers sculpt it, texture it, hammer it or set it with diamonds and coloured stones, revealing a material that is both noble and endlessly adaptable. China, Australia and Russia remain today the world’s leading gold producers. Yet the limited ethical regulations governing extraction have long cast a shadow over its use in jewellery. This is why the Fairmined label was created in 2004: to guarantee the traceability of gold and ensure its positive impact on social development and environmental protection. Thanks to this certification, gold can now be considered “clean”, as opposed to conflict gold or gold extracted using harmful processes. Used since prehistory, gold was one of the first coloured metals mastered by ancient metallurgists. In Egypt, it was collected in small quantities along the Nile and elevated through religious ornamentation. Later, European conquistadors seized its value, while the American Gold Rush shaped an entire region of the West. Today, gold still plays a central economic role and is traded on major international exchanges. In its pure form, however, it remains too soft to be used alone in jewellery. It must be alloyed with other metals, measured in karats. The French market recognises 9k, 14k and especially 18k gold — the latter composed of 75% pure gold, ideal for its durability, stability and non-allergenic properties. 22k gold, intensely yellow and emblematic in India, is also used by certain designers.

Garnet

Garnet takes its name from the Latin malum granatum, “seeded fruit,” a reference to the pomegranate whose vibrant red seeds echo the colour of many garnet varieties. It is not a single gemstone but a broad family, each type with its own hue and identity: the purple almandine, the deep orange hessonite, the vivid pink rhodolite, and the green tsavorite, whose brightness can rival that of an emerald. Found in Brazil, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Madagascar, Tanzania and the United States, garnet deposits reflect the breadth of this mineral family. Its crystalline structure allows it to reflect light with remarkable intensity, a quality highly valued in jewellery. Across various traditions, garnet is associated with grounding, courage and emotional stability. Whether red, pink or green, its dense colour carries a sense of warmth and depth. Contemporary designers such as Anaconda, Fernando Jorge and Alighieri are drawn to its vibrancy and generous radiance — a gemstone capable of expressing both strength and softness, depending on its variety.
