Garnet, the birthstone for January, signifies eternal friendship and trust and is the perfect gift for a friend. Garnet, derived from the word granatum, means seed, and is called so because of the gemstone's resemblance to a pomegranate seed. References to the gemstone dates back to 3100 B.C., when the Egyptians used garnets as inlays jewelry. Garnet is the name of a group of minerals that comes in a rainbow of colors, from the deep red of the pyrope garnet to the vibrant green of tsavorites. Today, the most important sources for garnet are Africa, Sri Lanka, and India. Source: americangemsociety.org

Vintage style and modern motives in Handmade jewelry by BeautySpot.
"Just like 4 years ago we create each our piece from the very start - the
idea. Then we find or create the right images, right materials, beads
and findings. And then we put it all together and make it real with our
hands.
It's the most exciting part - your have something in your
mind and then you do the "magic" work, wait a little bit while resin
dries and you already can hold that idea in your hands, turn it into the
gift for the dear friend, associate it with some great moments of your
life. That's what handmade is about for us - making and keeping it real."
