Rhodolite comes from the Greek word &#8220;rhodon&#8221;, meaning rose. Many courageous discoverers and travelers wore garnets for protection, as they were considered popular talismans and protective stones. Garnet is a natural, semi-precious gemstone associated with the planet Mars, the zodiac sign of Aquarius and the birthstone of the month of January.<\/p>\n<p>The Rhodolite Garnet rondelles used in this piece are tiny and beautiful. Each is approximately 2-2.5mm and a lovely raspberry color. In different lighting, the full range of colors shine and you can see a variety of redish purple hues.<\/p>\n<p>Measuring approximately 1.5&#8243; in diameter (not including bail), it&#8217;s a lovely size both for everyday and special occasion wear.<\/p>\n<p>Available for purchase <a herf=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/95288110\/rhodolite-garnet-tree-of-life-pendant-in\" target=\"_blank\"><B>HERE<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stunning, semi-precious Rhodolite Garnet rondelles in a bright raspberry pink color are set in sterling silver wire to form a beautiful Tree of Life pendant.
