Garnet Necklaces

January's birthstone is garnet. For those who are born in January garnet jewellery is a perfect gift. The garnets used in jewellery are usually deep red in hue although garnets are mined in a wide variety of colours including greens, yellows and oranges. Garnet is named after the bright red seeds in a pomegranate. Garnet jewellery when given to a Capricorn is said to represent true friendship, loyalty and purity.
