What it is?
Pyrope is a gemstone belonging to the group of garnets. Frozen dragon blood, fire stone, carbuncle, Czech garnet, Bohemian or Californian ruby - this is what different peoples called this mineral because of its deep red color. Pyrope resembles small pomegranate seeds, and when sunlight hits it, it looks like an ember enclosed in glass. This fiery stone owes its mysterious color to chromium and iron, which are included in its composition (if these impurities are not present, then the pyrope will be colorless).
This stone is easy to work with, after grinding it has a glass luster. Pyrope is often confused with almandine, as both are dark red garnets.
The difference in chemical composition, luster, density and size are the main differences between pyrope and almandine. The Bohemian ruby is small, transparent, with a glassy sheen, of a dark color. When heated, Czech pyrope retains its color. For this feature, it was called the immortal stone.
