Although garnets have been known since ancient times, the demantoid variety was not discovered until 1868 in Russia\u2019s western central Ural Mountains. Miners were immediately stunned by the highly refractive nature of the gem material. They began comparing it to\u00a0<span class=\"glossary-tooltip glossary-term-373309\"><span class=\"glossary-link\"><span class=\"glossary-underline\">diamond<\/span><\/span><\/span> and referred to it as \u201cdemantoid\u201d, from the French \u201cdemant\u201d meaning diamond. The reason is obvious, with its high brilliance and dispersion. These bright apple green stones are comparatively rare and very expensive as they are no longer mined. In the early 1900s they were a celebrated stone and items of jewellery such as this beautiful tortoise were set with these stunning stones.<\/div>\n<div class=\"Y3BBE\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAkQAA\" data-processed=\"true\" data-complete=\"true\">The tortoise stands for\u00a0<span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-complete=\"true\"><strong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-complete=\"true\">Longevity and stability<\/strong>: With its long lifespan and slow, deliberate movements, the tortoise is a symbol of enduring love, patience, and commitment. <\/span><span class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-complete=\"true\">The tortoise\u2019s shell represents security and the protection of a stable home or family life.<\/span><\/div>\n<div data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAkQAA\" data-processed=\"true\" data-complete=\"true\"><\/div>\n<div data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAkQAA\" data-processed=\"true\" data-complete=\"true\">A wonderful gift.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beautiful 15ct gold brooch of a tortoise.
