Tucker Garnet Earrings
THE STORY
These restored Victorian earrings from the late 1800s are comprised of genuine Bohemian Garnet stones and screw-back clasps.
The word “Bohemian” derives from the region of Bohemia, a kingdom which later became Czechoslovakia. Garnet stones were thought to resemble pomegranate seeds - a fruit that represented prosperity and wealth in ancient times. Throughout the centuries, this region continued to produce gorgeous, deep red garnet gemstones - the prolific mining of the gems in the 1800s resulted in their appearance throughout late Victorian Era and turn-of-the-century jewelry.
