José, I have to agree with Alan here regarding screen calibration. I'm not seeing the pink tones you are seeing at all.
Thant said, it must also be noted that garnets come ina very large range of colours, from deep reds to oranges, purples, browns, yellows, greens and even the rare blues. Garnets with a pink hue primarily include Rhodolite, Malaya (or Malaia), and certain rare pyrope varieties, featuring colors ranging from delicate rose-pink to deep raspberry, purplish-pink, and magenta.
My bet here is that some of these might be garnet and some might even be glass or pastes.
