Garnets for January

Garnets have been used in jewelry from the ancient times. The most familiar color is deep red, but they may range from red to yellow, green and black. There is even a rare variety which changes color throughout the day! Garnets are rumored to help with business success and protect travelers. Garnet has been known as a stone of purity and truth as well as a symbol of love and compassion.

But lets' talk about the jewelry here. You can find lots of beautiful garnet jewelry from the JET team on Etsy.
First, some beautiful earrings from Sending Love Gallery. Sterling silver with rhodolite garnets and fresh water pearls. A sweet and simple design!

In a more romantic mode,  these sterling silver filagree earrings  from the Brass Hussy will make you feel feminine and flirty!

Lastly, I'll show you a lovely stacking ring in sterling silver in my shop. But don't stop looking here! Head over to Etsy and search the tags "jetteam, garnet" under "Handmade". You'll find dozens of beautiful jewelry creations to fulfill your garnet cravings.
