Part of the country’s biggest jewellery chain, Granát Turnov specialises in Bohemian garnet, and has a huge range of gold and silver rings, brooches, cufflinks and necklaces featuring these small, dark blood-red stones. There’s also pearl and diamond jewellery, and less expensive pieces set with the dark green semiprecious stone known in Czech as vltavín (moldavite).
