We have Always Loved Gems!
For centuries men have coveted and women have desired precious and semi precious gemstones. Steeped in myth magic and mysticism gems have enthralled and captivated us. Gemstones have been linked with healing and power since records began, each stone having a different healing power and associated with a particular month in the year when it’s power is at it’s peak.The First Birthstone Chart
In 1912
the American National Association of Jewelers adopted the modern
birthstone list detailing the stones for
each month. The gemstone birth chart
does vary across the world so not every month has an identical stone.
Sri Lanka is a gem producing country most
famous for the beautiful dark blue sapphires like the one Prince Charles gave
lady Dianna on their Engagement. PRINCESS
DIANA’S
famous oval cut 18 carat blue sapphire is surrounded by 16 small diamonds in a
cluster setting. The ring is now worn by the beautiful Duchess Catherine, who
is making the sapphire popular all over again.

to the Gem association of Sri Lanka Aquamarine is the birthstone for March. Aquamarine
named after the colour of the sea can be found in 2 colour tones, you can get light
sea green aquamarine which was hugely popular in the 19th century or
sky blue aquamarine. The sky blue aquamarine is the more valuable today.
