Your questions, answered
What is the January birthstone?
Garnet is the January birthstone. It is best known in a deep wine red, although garnet also comes in orange, green and pink, and it has been worn since ancient Egypt.
What does garnet mean?
Garnet is traditionally a stone of friendship and loyalty, and travellers once carried it to keep them safe on long journeys. That is why it is so often given to someone close.
Are your January birthstone pieces real garnet?
It depends on the piece. Most are set with garnet CZ in a deep red, one gold vermeil necklace features natural garnet, and our raw styles have an uncut look, so each product page lists the exact stone.
What makes a good January birthday gift?
A garnet necklace or a pair of heart studs is an easy place to start, and the Carnation birthflower studs pair the stone with January's flower. If you are unsure, our Gift Finder suggests pieces in a few quick questions.
