January's birthstone is Garnet. Available in many spectral colors, most famous are Brown, Red-Brown and Violet / Purple stones that set nicely in jewelry categories. It's also the suggested stone for 2nd Anniversaries. This ancient stone is believed to be a sign of friendship, loyalty and devotion. P.S. Green Garnet is called Tsavorite and rivals fine emerald qualitatively. It is also harder than emerald so it's safer without sacrificing beauty. Enjoy January, Seth Gopin your G.G.
