Celebrate a special January birthday, anniversary or other special occasion with the dazzling January birthstone – garnet. Our collection of birthstones features gemstones ethically-sourced from around the globe and set in an assortment of jewelry styles, all designed and crafted here in the Texas Hill Country.
The garnet birthstone is a rich, deep red gem and received its name from the ancient Greeks because the color reminded them of the “granatum,” or the pomegranate seed. The garnets in jewelry designed by James Avery are generally in the red-violet to red-brown color range, creating a stunning statement when contrasted with our sterling silver and 14K gold designs.
Our garnet jewelry comes in a collection of January birthstone rings, charms, pendants and earrings. Crafted in a variety of styles from our classic Spanish scroll motifs to the swirls and flourishes of our Cherished Birthstone Rings and touches of twisted wire in some of our other favorite looks. So whether you want something simple like a heart set with a little garnet or if you like the intricate scrolling styles we’re known for, there’s a garnet setting you’re sure to love for many years to come. These designs can also be worn as Capricorn birthstone jewelry, though garnet is generally used to celebrate all the birthdays in the month of January.
Browse the collection and fall in love with the deep red hue of garnet gems. Wear it to represent a special love or to celebrate your birthday or the birthday of those you hold dear. No matter the meaning, garnet sparkles and shines to make a timeless statement you’ll cherish. Learn more about January’s birthstone with our online Birthstone Guide. Still have questions?
