While some people buy gemstones or gemstone jewelry for their healing properties, I just buy them for the designs. One of my recent gemstone bracelets is this lovely garnet with an OT lock. I am partial to bracelets with this kind of lock as it’s so easy to fasten and unfasten whereas those with hooks can be rather time consuming as the hook is so small.

Garnet is the birthstone for January but I don’t wear my birth month’s gemstone. some benefits of wearing garnet include cleansing and re-energising our chakras, balancing and purifying energy as well as regulating blood circulation. Other than the design, the best thing about this bracelet is its price, only RM19 from my favourite jewellery store in Shopee.
