January - Garnet

Birthstones are a popular selection for piercing jewellery, because these provide you with an attractive and relevant item of jewellery, which is appealing in this particular case thanks to the vibrant red colouration of the garnet gem, which provides the birthstone for January. This is an exceptionally high quality product, offering something appealing enough that your customers would want to wear it on an everyday basis, while simple enough to ensure that a wide variety of customers, regardless of age and gender, might find it to be suitable to their needs. This earring selection uses a gold plated bezel setting to accomplish the beautiful framed effect on the stone, emphasising the deep red colouration and beautiful shape. The design measures approximately 4mm, making this a reasonably average sized selection, but with the larger than average earring post. The earring post is approximately 2mm, and gives a particularly effective selection for a first pair of earrings because the increased size means that the piercing is encouraged to heal a little larger, which does make it easier to work with once fully healed. This is of course a very hygienic and safe selection, not only using hypo-allergenic, hygienic materials in the manufacture process, but supplied in individual packaging with the required butterfly backings to give the best possible results.
