January Birthstone:Garnet Jewelry

Garnet style birthstone earrings

Garnet, a type of rock forming mineral known for its crystal texture, is traditionally the birthstone for the month of January. Garnet stones come in a range of colors however the deep reddish stones are the most popular while the stones with hues of blue tend to be the most rare. Garnet is said to be a stone of love, passion and romance, bringing the wearer both energy and positive thoughts.  This January I decided to focus on adding more garnet jewelry to my collection of gemstones and birthstones. Dark browns and reds are all the rave this year so look forward to seeing more of these colors on Candysjewelrybox.com!
