Rhodolite garnet is the name given to a mixture of almandine and pyrope. The name rhodolite likely comes from the Greek word "rhodon," meaning rose. Rhodolite tends to be lighter in color than most other types of red garnet. It can easily be mistaken for ruby ​​due to the similarity in color.

In ancient times, as well as in the Middle Ages, people believed that the cosmos was reflected in gemstones. Garnet was associated with the planets Mars, Mercury, and Pluto.
