Our Product Story
Garnet is January's birthstone. A hard, durable, often very brilliant stone, it's available in many colors other than the classic deep red, including green, yellow, orange, pink and violet. Garnet occurs in certain shades of red that have been taken for some varieties of ruby. In yellow, it has been confused with precious topaz. In fact, garnets can be found in almost every color and shade except blue.
Gold in its pure form is a yellow metallic element. It is one of the three noble metals and surpassed by none in its innate resistance to corrosion, malleability and attractive color. This soft metal performs best when alloyed with other metals to make it stronger. To produce rose gold, gold is alloyed with copper to give it a warm pink hue.
Sterling silver is a white, highly reflective precious metal composed of 925 parts of pure silver and 75 parts alloy, usually copper. Copper provides the silver with sufficient hardness and wearing qualities, as pure silver is sometimes considered too soft to be used or worn everyday. Sterling silver is used in a wide variety of jewelry for a beautiful polished look.
