January Birthstone Earrings set with Garnet
January birthstone earrings can be set with raw or cut Garnet gemstones. A pair of raw or rough gemstones set in earrings will unlikely be identical in shape but cut and polished stones can be shaped to be as similar as possible.
The birthstone color for January is deep red so you may also find January jewelry made with deep/dark red colored glass or synthetic beads. Always check jewelry descriptions carefully so you know if the piece contains real gemstones or synthetic stones. Real gemstones will have flaws and impurities and synthetic stones will be flawless and clear. All are equally beautiful and it just depends what you prefer.
