No other birthday gift has so much personal meaning as the special gemstone dedicated to men and women born in one specific month of the year. According to ancient tradition, birthstone gems were believed to reflect personal traits and bestow legendary powers on those born under their sign. And these precious gems have lasting value in addition to their beauty and color. Birthstone jewelry is always a prized gift.
NOVEMBER – Topaz / Citrine
These bright yellow gems are traditional symbols of long and happy life for those born in November. Both topaz and citrine are hard and durable gems with a brilliant sparkle.
And they come in a wide range of sunny yellow colors.
DECEMBER – Turquoise / Blue Zircon / Tanzanite
These richly colored blue gems are very different but all offer prosperity to those of December birth. Smooth, opaque turquoise has a sky blue color. Transparent blue zircon glows with a vivid icy sparkle. And tanzanite displays a deep shadowy blue-purple color that is most appealing.
JANUARY – Garnet
Deep, wine-red garnet has long symbolized the virtue of fidelity for the January born. It has been treasured since antiquity for its rich color, brilliant sparkle, and great durability. In addition to red, it comes in dozens of bright colors – everything except blue.
