January’s birthstone garnet is a great stone for grounding and stability. It balances and energises the chakras from root to crown to get you back on your feet after a setback. A great stone to build your self-esteem, it will bring you the courage to face your fears, and help you grow stronger everyday!
A strikingly deep red colour, garnet is perfect for cosy winter evenings. It really pops in particular when set in yellow gold, which gives it a beautiful warmth. Garnet can brighten up a simple, dark outfit, by adding a pop of colour and sparkle. Whether your style is delicate and refined or bold and organic, check out my range of garnet jewellery to find your perfect match.
Four members of my family have January birthdays, so I’m really familiar with this bad boy - my mum, sister, brother in law and sister in law were all born within four days of each other (different years, of course!), and all have plenty of garnet in their collections by now! Are you a January baby too? Let me know in the comments.
