rhodolite
Rose-colored gemstone variety
Rhodolite is a rose-pink to purplish-red variety of garnet, prized as a semiprecious gemstone.
The color falls between the deeper red of pyrope and the violet of almandine garnets.
Rhodolite appears in jewelry settings where its clarity and warm hue make it an affordable alternative to ruby: a rhodolite pendant, rhodolite earrings.
