The name "garnet" is closely associated with the red fruit "pomegranate" because the crystals of garnet resemble the shape and color of pomegranate seeds. Therefore, it is named "garnet." The most common color of garnet is red.

Garnet is a crystal that is particularly suitable for women to wear. It is known as the "stone of the base chakra" and is famous for its properties related to blood and energy. It can promote blood circulation and hormone secretion, thereby improving conditions of blood deficiency. It is especially beneficial for women who are physically weak, prone to coldness, and have blood deficiency. Additionally, it can help improve reproductive system functions. Due to the enhancement of blood and energy, the skin may become rosy, radiant, and glossy, so many people also believe that wearing garnet can have beauty and skincare effects.
