Garnet is January’s birthstone and is mostly known for its deep crimson red color that evokes passion, warmth, and energy — the perfect match for the start of a new year. The name garnet is derived from the Latin word granatum, meaning “seed,” due to its resemblance to pomegranate seeds.
But garnet isn’t just a single note. This versatile stone appears in a dazzling spectrum of colors, including fiery oranges, sunny yellows, and lush greens. Among these, the tsavorite garnet stands out as a rare and stunning variety with its brilliant emerald-green hue. This Three Row Tsavorite Eternity Band is a great gift to celebrate a milestone with your significant other, whether for a wedding anniversary or the arrival of a new family member.
For those who love making bold statements, this pair of Tsavorite Drop Earrings from A & Furst’s Sole Collection will add drama and dazzle to your outfit. Featuring oval cabochons of chrysoprase, oval tsavorites, and round diamonds, these earrings are a show-stopping ode to January’s birthstone.
Garnet isn’t just about aesthetics, however. Many believe this stone channels positive energy, strengthens self-confidence, and wards off negativity. With such qualities, garnet jewelry is the perfect stone for the new year.
