OUR SPOTLIGHT ON BIRTHSTONES

Gemstone historians agree that the likely origin of wearing birthstones involves a religious garment set with twelve gemstones representing the tribes of Israel, months of the year and signs of the zodiac. These stones were not accepted universally and as you see below, often there are discrepancies. Today, the Modern adaptation is considered the standard, although some argue that it would be more appropriate to observe birthstones as suggested using the Astrological sign. Regardless of your choice, listed are below are the guidelines we have found.

As our website knowledge base and inventory expands, we will link this table to the pieces we have available.
