Did I tell you my husband cuts gemstones? This one is 'specially special since we actually found the garnet he cut at Ruby Reservoir up near Yellowstone Park.

  2. Yes. A garnet is very hard to facet because the stone is so dark.

    1. This looks like a ruby, but it's actually a garnet. It could pass in a pinch, I think.
