Birthstones

Birthstones have been used since at least the first century as a way to give good luck on one's birthday. Gemstones are associated with each month and each precious stone has designated qualities associated with it. Birthstones are also a fun way to share something about yourself.

Birthstones have been used for centuries to celebrate one's birth. Since different traditions have associated different gemstones with each month, We have included several so you can choose the birthstone which works best for you. Know whichever birthstones you choose, your gift will be very much enjoyed. If you want a birthstone with the most significance to choose one from the older traditions; otherwise, simply choose the gemstone you like most.
