Garnet is most famous for its intense red color, but the stone is actually a chameleon, appearing in green, yellow, and orange varieties. The name is inspired by nature; the Latin word for seed, granatus, was chosen because the stone's crystals closely resemble the seeds of a pomegranate.

If your birth month is January, the garnet is the one associated with you. Each month carries its own magic, making birthstones one of the most thoughtful gifts of all.

Use the stone as a modern lucky charm that accompanies you throughout the day, or as a loving greeting to someone you care about – a discreet way to keep your favorite people close.

Garnet is known as the stone of energies. It represents everything from passionate love to the self-confidence that drives us forward in our professional lives. By wearing a garnet, you invite both sensuality and decisiveness into your daily life – an ideal gift for the modern woman who is comfortable in her own skin.
