Garnets were one of Queen Victoria’s favourite gemstone, and like royals, the different gem shades are cherished by celebrities.
The January birthstone has more colours than the deep red colour. Garnets can be found in nearly all other colours, including orange, yellow, green, purple, brown, black, and colourless. 


While Rhodolite is purplish red, Hessonite is an orange or cinnamon variety, Tsavorite, Uvarovite and Demantoid are green varieties.
The deep red colour, multifaceted history, lores and legends all add the mysticism of the garnet. This warm, bright stone stands in contrast to the cold month of January.
