Geology: Garnet is a mineral group that commonly forms under heat and pressure during metamorphism, or in certain igneous rocks. Without a documented source, its exact garnet variety and geological age should not be assigned.
Care: Garnet is generally durable, but the carving has detailed projections. Handle with care, avoid drops and sharp impacts, and clean with a soft dry or lightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Metaphysical note: In spiritual traditions, garnet is associated with vitality, courage and grounding. Bear imagery is often associated with protection, strength and resilience. These are beliefs only and are not scientific or medical claims.
