    Garnet ?

    Hello,
    I have come across a seller that is offering something called "Hyde Garnets" for sale in the size and cut that I'm purchasing right now. They appear to be a dark burgundy colour.

    I've done a google search and a forum search for Hyde Garnet and I can't find any information on them. Anyone here know if they go by another name? They are advertised as gemstones but maybe they are glass?

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.

    It could be the location from which it was mined. I did a search, and it looks like there is some garnet mining in a Hyde Park, which is in Vermont somewhere.
