About Garnet:
The name garnet comes from the Latin word "granatum" meaning pomegranate seed. Garnet is the birthstone for January and the second wedding anniversary stone.
Garnets are formed under extreme heat and pressure and are found in igneous and metamorphic rocks. They are composed of silicate and aluminum and come in many varieties and colors, with red being the most popular. They can be found in the US, Madagascar, Africa, Russia, India, Pakistan, and South America.
Garnet is referred to as the travelers stone, and in ancient times was used as the friendship gem.

Meet the Maker
Handcrafted Jewelry with a Love for Gemstones
Welcome to Linda's Jewelry Shop! I'm Linda, and my son Joe and I create gemstone jewelry in New Hampshire in minimal styles with 925 sterling silver and 14K gold filled.
What we love about jewelry making:
We love working with natural gemstones and simple designs that bring out the beauty of the stone. Jewelry making is one of the remaining crafts that cannot be mass produced and there are always new skills to learn and new gemstones to discover! It is such a rewarding feeling when someone purchases one of our jewelry pieces to give to someone special.
What are we working on now:
We are adding new necklace and earring birthstone sets for the holidays, a few jewelry pieces that can be personalized, and jewelry for holiday weddings.
What we are planning next:
After the holidays we have new minimalist designs coming for wedding, lariats and y necklaces, and bracelets. We are always adding new gemstones and designs to our collection. Just let us know if there is a particular gemstone you are looking for.
New Eco Friendly Packaging:
We are in the process of transitioning all our jewelry packaging to eco-friendly materials. Our goal is to purchase products made from recycled materials, products that are recyclable, and FSC certified products (materials from forests that follow environmentally responsible guidelines). Almost all of these products are purchased from companies here in the US.
Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions, or if you would like us to design something special just for you.
Wishing you all the best this holiday season and thank you for shopping handmade,
Linda and Joe

If we no longer carry the supplies to repair your jewelry (for instance we may be out of a particular gemstone) we often have alternatives that can be used. Please return the entire jewelry piece, even broken pieces. The buyer assumes return/exchange shipping costs.
Do you make custom orders?
We enjoy making custom orders and are happy to design something just for you. But because these items are customized for you and are not something we currently sell in our shop, we cannot take returns on these items.
How long will it take to ship my order?

What if I entered the wrong address?
Please always check the address you entered is correct before completing your purchase. If you entered an incorrect address please let us know as soon as possible so we can make the changes before shipping your item.
If the item ships to the wrong address, it can take quite some time to come back to us. We will notify you when the item comes back and send you a link to purchase another shipping label with the correct address. We are not responsible for items lost due to an incorrect address.
What if I ordered the wrong size?
Sometimes the fit just isn't quite right and you need your necklace or bracelet longer or shorter. Just let us know and we are happy to make adjustments for you free of charge.
How can I make sure I'm ordering the right size?
- The size of each gemstone is provided in the item description or in the "how its made" section under materials.
- We do offer different chain length options for most of our jewelry items. If you are looking for a different length just let us know.
- For measuring necklace chains, the best method is to cut a piece of string and wrap around from behind your neck, bringing both ends in front of you to see what length fits best.
- Our backdrop necklaces have instructions for measuring under the "how its made" section."
- For bracelets, you can cut a piece of string and measure around your wrist. We advise to allow a quarter to half inch extra for the bracelet to hang comfortably. Adjust the string to how you would like your bracelet to hang.
- If you are unsure of your ring size, any local jeweler can check your size for you (usually for free).
How do I return or exchange my jewelry?
With all returns please notify us first. You can place the jewelry in the box it came in, and place the box into a padded bubble envelope. That will protect the jewelry during shipping. We always advise to add tracking to your order that helps us locate the package if a delivery issue occurs.
How long will it take to issue my refund?
We issue refunds within 1-3 business days for items returned in their original condition.
My item arrived damaged. What do I do?
Please let us know right away if an item arrives damaged.
How do I care for my jewelry?
We include jewelry care instructions with each order. Please be sure to read about caring for your jewelry. You can always contact us with any questions. We cannot replace or repair items that are damaged due to neglect of care (example: jewelry worn in chlorinated pools or cleaned with household chemicals, or items tarnished that were not stored properly).
