*SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS only: Swarovski recommends their "Siam" color for a closer match to natural garnet gemstones. The SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS "Garnet" color is recommended for July, in addition to their "Ruby" color. For June, Swarovski recommends their "Light Amethyst" shade instead of their "Alexandrite" shade.
