Garnet by Valerie
===Garnet is red, brown, black and various shades of yellow and green. This gem is found in Central Europe, Russia and South Africa. Garnet is the 7th hardness in all gems and rock. This gem is a Metamorphic Rock, and is good for grinding and polishing. Garnet is January's birthstone.===
