Almandene

Introducing Almadene, a singular raw garnet ear stud, chosen exclusively by Surrealium for its rare and untamed beauty. Unlike conventional cut gemstones, these Almandine Garnets are left in their natural form, showcasing their distinctive cubic crystal structure—a testament to the raw power of nature.

Glowing fiery pink and deep purple from within its dark, volcanic surface, the garnet’s shimmering silver reflections shift with the light, revealing layers of depth and energy. Historically revered as a stone of strength, vitality, and transformation, Almadene embodies the very essence of Surrealium: otherworldly, rare, and unapologetically bold.

Each piece is hand-selected from the most extraordinary natural formations, ensuring that every Almadene stud is one-of-a-kind, shaped over millions of years by elemental forces. No two are alike, making it a true relic of the Earth, suspended in time.

Silver, Pearls & Hard Gemstones
Our sterling silver pieces set with natural pearls and gemstones can be worn in the shower. Solid chains and designs made with hard materials are also safe to sleep in.

Sculpted & Delicate Designs
Pieces with sculpted forms, crushed gemstones, seashells, or textured surfaces are more delicate—remove before bathing or sleep. Avoid steam, saunas, and excessive heat.

Brass & Mixed Metals
Although sealed with a protective coating, these are more sensitive to water. We do not recommend showering, sleeping in, or wearing them for days on end. If exposed to moisture, dry thoroughly to preserve the finish.

General Care
Store pieces separately in a soft pouch. Clean silver gently with a polishing cloth; avoid abrasives, especially on pearls and textured surfaces.

Our Lifetime Warranty includes accidental damage repairs, restoration, and complimentary refresh & polish. Contact our atelier—each piece is handcrafted at the Surrealium atelier in Kastellet Fortress, Stockholm, and deserves mindful care.
