Birthstone Jewelry



Birthstone jewelry has been quite popular due to the mystical value that they carry. Traditionally believed to bring prosperity, security and good luck, birthstone jewelry has always been in demand for the right reasons. Let us look at the history and the usefulness of birthstones before we go any further.
birthstone are nothing but gemstones that are associated with the calendar year. Each month of the year has a different birthstone and people who wear birthstone jewelry believe that wearing the stone associated with the month will bring in a lot of good luck and increased healing power. For example, it is commonly known that wearing a diamond in the month of April could have beneficial effects since the diamond is associated with the April month. Only, your birth date should be in April.
Birthstones are set in what we call the birthstone jewelry to make them more presentable and wearable. Normally going by the aesthetic appeal any or all birthstones are set in silver, gold, sterling silver, white gold or platinum to make highly fashionable birthstone jewelry. Birthstone lists have a different history all by themselves, these are lists that have come from ancient times and no one actually knows how correct or wrong they are. There are various lists. The Mystical Birthstone list is known to be over a thousand years old and has originated form Tibet. Another list called the Ayurvedic Birthstone list is also known to be equally old and has its origins in the ancient Indian Ayurvedic medicine. Yet another birthstone list is the Traditional Birthstone known to have its roots in the 15th century. However, since so many lists add to the confusion, a standard birthstone list was adopted in 1912 which is known as the Modern Birthstone list. This list is followed by the American National Association of Jewelers. The modern birthstone list assigns a gemstone to each of the dozen Zodiac signs and the dozen months of the calendar.
