Garnet is most recognized as a fiery red stone (called pyrope garnet) and as January's birthstone. It can be found in a variety of colors including tsavorite (green garnet), uvarovite (green druse crystals), rhodolite (pink), almandine (rusty-brown, orange), blue, and other colors.

Canadian sources of garnet include Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia although good gemstone quality material is more difficult to come by. Worldwide sources include Brazil, Africa and Czechoslovakia.

It is a stone steeped in history as it has been used as adornment for several centuries, especially in Europe. In the past, garnet was believed to have healing properties because of its blood red color. It was also believed that a gift of garnet would win a woman's everlasting love. Some believe that garnet may revitalize the bloodstream and may enhance your imagination.
