Gemstones and Pearls

The Timeless Allure of Gemstones

For thousands of years, gemstones have captivated the human spirit — not only for their beauty, but for the deeper meanings they are believed to hold. Long before biblical times, they were treasured as symbols of power, protection, and destiny, often linked to the signs of the zodiac and revered by ancient tribes and cultures around the world.

In 1912, the National Association of Jewellers formalised the modern birthstone list, assigning a gemstone to each month of the year. While there have been a few updates over time, the core stones have remained unchanged — their allure as eternal as the moments they celebrate.

Each birthstone carries a story, a history, and a meaning that makes it far more than just a beautiful gem — it is a personal connection to heritage, identity, and the natural world.
