From sterling silver to precious gems, each ring, bracelet, pendant or pair of earrings is the perfect compliment to a well chosen wardrobe. The icing on the cake, so to speak. And colourful jewels are always so much fun.
Birthstones are argued to have originated over twenty centuries ago, originally found adorning the breastplate of the high priest mentioned in the book of Exodus in the Bible. Twelve gems representing the twelve tribes of Israel graced the breastplate and are thought to have inspired our modern birthstones, one gem for each month of the year.
Here is our modern breakdown generally accepted as the birthstones for each month.
January: Garnet
February: Amethyst
March: Aquamarine
April: Diamond
May: Emerald
June: Pearl
July: Ruby
August: Peridot
September: Sapphire
October: Opal
November: Yellow Topaz
December: Blue Topaz
Many people create Family Rings that include a gem for each of their children. We like to create bracelets with multiple beads of colour representing those closest to us.
