Need a January Birthday Gift Idea? Garnets!

January Birthstone - Garnet

 

 

January Birthstone is Garnet, a deep red color gemstone, that appropriately follows the Christmas Season. Struggling with what to buy for the January Birthday Girl? Garnets may be the answer.

The word Garnet comes from the Latin word “granatus” which means grain or seed. This name was given to the garnet because of its close resemblance to the succulent pomegranate seed. Both are deep red in color.

Garnet were first mined in Sri Lanka over 2,500 years ago. Today they can also be found in Africa, Australia, India, Russia, South America; and in the United States, in Arizona and Idaho. Garnets are most commonly known as a red gemstone but they come in a variety of other hues, including muted yellows, vibrant oranges, rosy pinks, lime greens, and violets.

According to biblical legend, the garnet was thought to have been the gem that Noah hung on the ark to light his way through the dark and stormy nights of God’s wrath. It continues to be the protective gem of journeyers. A gift of garnet is thought to be symbolic of love and the desire for a loved one’s safe travel and speedy homecoming.
