Garneter

/ˈɡɑːrnətər/ noun

Definition

A person who cuts, polishes, or works with garnets.

Etymology

From garnet + -er agent suffix. Follows the pattern of jeweler, stonecutter—occupational names from the thing being worked.

Kelly Says

Garneters were skilled artisans in gemstone centers, and their profession shows how specialized medieval crafts were—you had people whose entire career was just working with one type of stone.
