January birthstone jewelry: Garnet

January birthday jewelry 

Love and friendship, protection and vitality are just a few of the many attributes the January birthstone symbolizes. Known for its deep red hue, garnet is available in a wide range of colors, the rarest being blue. Garnets have been around for centuries. Ancient Egyptians incorporated them into talismans and amulets. The Romans added the deep-red gemstones to jewelry, and those in the Middle Ages included garnets into artwork and gifts for lovers. 
These days, however, garnet birthstone jewelry remains ever popular, particularly if you have a January birthday, your partner loves the look of garnets or you have children born that first month of the year.
