Bright blood-red magnesium garnet.
Supplied by weight or by piece — raw, polished or made into jewellery. Sizes, grades and quantities on request.
Pyrope is the magnesium garnet, usually a clear, fiery blood red. Its name comes from the Greek for "fiery".
It forms deep in the earth and is brought up in volcanic rocks; small gem pyropes are found in India and Africa.
