The commonest color is red, the luster is vitreous, and the hardness greater than that of quartz. The dodecahedron and trapezohedron are the common forms.</def>

<note>&hand; There are also white, green, yellow, brown, and black varieties. The garnet is a silicate, the bases being aluminia lime (<i>grossularite</i>, <i>essonite</i>, or <i>cinnamon stone</i>), or aluminia magnesia (<i>pyrope</i>), or aluminia iron (<i>almandine</i>), or aluminia manganese (<i>spessartite</i>), or iron lime (<i>common garnet</i>, <i>melanite</i>, <i>allochroite</i>), or chromium lime (<i>ouvarovite</i>, color emerald green). The transparent red varieties are used as gems. The garnet was, in part, the carbuncle of the ancients. Garnet is a very common mineral in gneiss and mica slate.</note>
