Birthstones: the perfect gift for your mom this year
Are you stuck on what to get your mom for Mother’s Day? Birthstone jewelry is more popular than ever. Here are a few ideas to inspire you.
Birthstones by month
Birthstones are traditionally associated with the month when a person was born. Here’s a quick guide.
- January: garnet
- February: amethyst
- March: aquamarine
- April: diamond
- May: emerald
- June: pearl
- July: ruby
- August: peridot
- September: sapphire
- October: opal
- November: citrine
- December: blue topaz
Birthstones have significant meanings beyond the month of a person's birth. For example, amethyst is the birthstone for February but also represents wisdom, while emerald is the birthstone for May but also symbolizes hope.
