The demantoid garnet was first discovered in Russia's Ural Mountains in 1853. The stone was frequently used in Victorian jewelry and was especially popular in the Russian Empire.

This green-brown combination of garnets is typical for Russian earrings of the late 19th - early 20th century.

The brown garnets have beautiful orange red fire
.


Both marked with 56 zolotniks Imperial Russian gold standard with Cyrillic initials 'ИЛ' for Moscow assay master Ivan Lebedkin (1899-1908) and workmaster's initials 'АП', probably, for Alexander Pushkov, owner of a jewelry shop on Miasnoi in Moscow.
