From the French for 'a thousand grains', the tiny beads of a milgrain accent can add complexity and detail to a Garnet design, as well as create a vintage or antique look. One of the oldest gemstones in history, garnet is the birthstone of January. Garnet rings have been popular since Victorian times, and are treasured for their deep red color. Pink tourmaline is a birthstone of October, along with opal, and is a truly special gem. The deep rosy color of a pink tourmaline ring will be sure to attract attention.
