The garnet brooch "Bumblebee" is definitely a brooch one can't help but notice. Although insect forms were very popular a century ago during the art period of "art nouveau", they are not so common at the moment. That makes this garnet brooch stand you out from the crowd, showing you as an individual. Jewellery with insects from fly to wasp were popular, mainly influenced to Japanese tradition, where these animals have a positive connotation. The special form of the bumblebee allows different shapes of garnets, and these different shapes do reflect their colour in distinct ways, what makes this brooch glow in all shades of red to dark-red, the colour of intense, old wine. A wonderful garnet brooch you can of course combine with all the other garnet jewellery we have in our webstore.
