Jewellery & Watch News
Those born in January are paired with the warm and fiery tones of Garnet. This stunning gemstone is typically seen in shades of burning red and orange but can also be found in yellow, green, purple and blue. In jewellery, Garnet becomes an instant centrepiece to an outfit, captivating with its iconic hues of red that when paired with diamonds becomes even more enchanting. Let’s take a look at some of our favourite pieces of Garnet jewellery…
18ct Rose Gold 2.17ct Garnet 0.09ct Diamond Cushion Cut Ring
For us, there is no better pairing for the red January birthstone than 18 carat rose gold and diamonds, and that’s exactly what we get with this stunning Garnet and diamond ring. The impressive Garnet stands centre stage, claw set and weighing to 2.17 carats. Beside it sit three sparkling brilliant cut diamonds totalling to 0.09 carats and of course the beautifully crafted solid rose gold band. As well as making a stylish everyday dress ring, the piece could make a unique engagement ring for someone with a birthday in the first month of the year or even to commemorate a proposal in January.

The four petal setting, reminiscent of the Tudor rose, is adorned in Garnet and sits within rare Welsh gold, white zirconia and a classic sterling silver backing secured by post and butterfly clasps.

Alongside prosperity and good health, peace is another association linked with the January birthstone and for us, there’s no better symbol of peace and tranquillity than the owl. This breathtaking Owl pendant features a piece of hand carved Whitby Jet gemstone set into the belly while its eyes, famous for glowing in the dark, are suitably set with two Garnet gemstones. For additional texture and a subtle sparkle, the sterling silver necklace is beautifully adorned with marcasite and comes delivered on a matching sterling silver 18 inch chain.
