Pyrope is a type of garnet, a group of silicate minerals known for their vibrant colors and use in jewelry. It is characterized by its deep red hue, which can sometimes appear almost black in certain lighting. Pyrope garnets are formed under high-pressure conditions in the Earth's mantle and are often found in metamorphic rocks. This gemstone is valued not only for its beauty but also for its durability, making it suitable for various types of jewelry. Pyrope garnets are often associated with bohemian garnets, which are a specific variety found in the Czech Republic, known for their rich color and historical significance.
