Today is my Mom's 63rd birthday, so Happy Birthday.  If you like here were born in January, than the Garnet is your birthstone.  Garnet in its traditional color, is a brick red color.  But did you know that Garnet actually comes in every color, except blue.  It is a very durable gemstone, and certain Garnets are very expensive, and rare.  Probably the most expensive would be the Demantoid Garnet, which is said to have more fire than a diamond.  Garnets are natural in their color, and are not known to be treated.  What comes out of the Earth is what you get.  Below is a cool video, talking about the Garnet birthstone.
