Monthly Birthstones

January: Garnet- The garnet is said to be the stone of constancy or loyalty.
It comes in a wide range of shades from light pink to orange/red, depending on their mineral content.

February: Amethyst- Stones of sincerity and honesty, the amethyst comes in varying depths of purple, and is reputed to have gotten its name from the Greek god, Bacchus, who poured wine over the head of a maiden he had turned to stone.

March: Aquamarine- A variation of the beryl stone, they represent courage and bravery. From the same waters that give the aquamarine its name, comes the colors of blue to blue/green.

April: Diamond- A diamond or white sapphire stands for innocence and purity. The diamond is rated the hardest of all gemstones, and was said by the Greeks to be tears of the gods.

May: Emerald- These stones signifying love and success, are a distant cousin of the aquamarine, also being a member of the beryl family. Many beryls are green, but not all green beryls will be emeralds. The stone is defined by its structure and inclusions.

June: Pearl- Pearls or the equally opalescent moonstone, represent health and longevity. Natural pearls that are grown in the ocean are rarely seen today. However one of the world's outstanding examples of pearl necklaces is a 150" strand, once owned by the royal family of Russia.

July: Ruby- A sign of contentment, this red stone can be transparent and clear, or opaque and brick-colored. The name comes from the Latin for "rubeus" or red.

August: Peridot- A delightful light green to yellow stone, the peridot is seen as evidence of marital bliss. It is said to have been a favorite of Cleopatra, who was also known to be fond of the other green stone, emeralds.

September: Sapphire- The sapphire in its traditional blue form, is thought to be associated with clear thinking or reasoning. Sapphires come in other colors than blue, although red ones are the stone known as rubies.

October: Opals or Tourmalines- These stones, which signify hope and the future, offer a variety of colors and appearance. The opal reflects light and shows itself in delicate pastels, while tourmalines can be a wide range of colors from pink, to a green that mimics the peridot.

November: Topaz or Citrine- In colors that range from light gold, to a dark amber, these stones stand for fidelity and faithfulness. The royal crown of Portugal contains a topaz of over 1600 carats, which was once mistaken for a yellow diamond.

December: Turquoise, Tanzanite and Zircon- An interesting selection of stones to represent prosperity and wealth, turquoise is the one "true" stone amongst them. Tanzanite is the result of heat treated zoisite, and Zircon is the man-made "diamond".
