Is garnet durable enough for a child to wear daily?

Garnet rates about 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, so it resists everyday knocks but can scratch and chip with hard impacts. It is fine for occasional wear; a child who is rough on jewelry may do better with a harder stone.

What size stone is in this ring?

The garnet is a 3mm round stone weighing 0.13 carat total. That is a small, subtle stone, sized for a child's hand.

Is 10K gold real gold?

Yes. 10K gold is 41.7 percent pure gold alloyed with other metals, which makes it harder and more scratch-resistant than 14K or 18K, though slightly less yellow in color.

Can this ring be resized?

A plain 10K gold band can usually be resized by a jeweler, but small children's rings have little metal to work with. Ask a jeweler before buying if you need a different size.

How should I care for the garnet?

Wipe it with a soft cloth and wash with mild soap and water. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals, and store it separately so the stone does not rub against harder jewelry.
