Hessonite Garnet Stone

Hessonite Garnet Stone is a crystal (shop SKU L1067B) on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Hessonite is a cinnamon to honey-brown variety of grossular garnet, a calcium aluminum silicate. In crystal traditions, hessonite garnet is associated with confidence and with creativity. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.
