Is a rhodolite garnet durable enough for an everyday wear men's ring?

Thinking about maybe using a pinkish red rhodolite garnet in a ring for my myself for everyday wear, removing it only when I'm expecting to do rough work. Will it stand up?

I received an emerald cut rhodolite solitaire ring 40+ years ago. I wore it daily for at least 20 years. It has a little nick on an edge, but who knows what I did as a teenager! It still looks good, though!

Well if you wore it as a teenager and it survived, that's a pretty good testament to its adequate durability.
