Gem Options:

January - Garnet
Spanning over 5,000 years of jewelry history, garnets have adorned Egyptian, Greek, and Roman collections. Named from Latin "granatus" for its resemblance to pomegranate seeds, this deep red gem represents trust and eternal friendship.

February - Amethyst
A gem of peaceful tranquility, amethyst's name comes from Greek "amethystos" meaning "not intoxicated." Historically prized by royalty as a symbol of power, it's also considered sacred in Tibetan Buddhism.

March - Aquamarine
First documented in 1677, this member of the beryl family was cherished by sailors who believed it offered protection at sea. Ancient Romans claimed Neptune discovered the stone when it fell from sirens' jewel boxes.

April - Diamond
Formed over 100 miles below Earth's surface through immense pressure and heat, diamonds are nearly 100% carbon. Ancient Romans believed they were tears of gods, while medieval Europeans credited them with healing properties.

May - Emerald
One of the "big four" precious gems, emeralds are actually rarer than diamonds. First mined in Egypt around 1500 BC, emeralds were treasured by Cleopatra and various ancient cultures for their verdant beauty.

June - Moonstone
Known for its unique "adularescence" - light that flashes across the surface like moonbeams on water. Hindu mythology claims it's composed of solidified moonbeams, while Roman and Greek cultures associated it with lunar deities.

July - Ruby
Known in Sanskrit as "Ratnaraj" (king of gems), ruby is the only red corundum classified as ruby - all other colors are sapphires. Medieval Europeans believed it brought wisdom, wealth, and better outcomes in love and health.

August - Peridot
One of only two gems formed in Earth's mantle and brought to surface through volcanic activity. Known in Hawaii as the tears of Pele, goddess of volcanoes, peridot has even been discovered in meteorites and stardust.

September - Montana Sapphire
Ethically sourced from American mines, these sapphires feature either rich denim blue or striking teal hues. First discovered by gold rush prospectors in 1865, they were the first gem-quality sapphires found in the United States.

October - Pink Tourmaline
First recorded in 1554, tourmaline exhibits unique electrical properties, becoming charged through heating or friction. The name originates from Sri Lankan "toramalli," celebrating the stone's remarkable clarity and vibrant character.

November - Citrine
Historically known as the "merchant's stone," citrine's golden hues have long been associated with abundance and prosperity. Medieval merchants kept citrine in their cash boxes, believing it would bring good fortune.

December - Tanzanite
Discovered near Mount Kilimanjaro and exclusively mined in Tanzania's Merelani Hills, this modern gem was introduced to the world by Tiffany & Co. Each stone is carefully heat-treated to enhance its striking blue-violet colors.
