About Birthstone Jewelry
January Birthstone: Garnet
Garnets come in a variety of colors but are best known for their deep red shade. January's birthstone is associated with faithfulness, sincerity, truth, and grace, and those born in this month are said to be loyal, devoted friends.
History of Birthstones
Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.

This review is from: 10k White Gold, January Birthstone, Garnet and Diamond Ring, Size 9 (Jewelry)
I just received this for my Birthday on January 20th, 2010. I had put it on my wish list because the picture looks EXACTLY like what I was looking for, but it is very deceiving. In the picture you can see the little diamonds and the band looks pretty sturdy. When I opened the ring, I was SEVERELY disappointed. The band is VERY thin I'm pretty sure I am missing a couple diamonds...but I'm not completely sure. I don't own a magnifying glass. To be honest, this ring looks like it could have come out of a quarter machine. If you are going for the "costume jewelry" look, then this would be perfect, however I don't even want to wear it because it looks so cheap. Again...you get what you pay for. If I can figure out how to return it, I'm going to.

This review is from: 10k White Gold, January Birthstone, Garnet and Diamond Ring (Jewelry)
I bought this ring for my wife for Valentine's Day. Both my wife and I thought it was sharp looking. Look, it's not an expensive piece of jewelry. My expectations are relative to its price, and for the money, I recommend it... if you like garnets. It has a neat design and the white gold and deepness of the garnet set each other off well. We did have to swap out the size though. Too bad they don't have it in half sizes!
