Zodiac birthstones

For centuries, people worldwide have used colored gemstones to mark occasions and send messages to their loved ones. Birthstones have always conveyed meaning for the giver and for the wearer.

Experts believe that the concept of birthstones dates back to biblical times. As early as the first century, Romano-Jewish historian, Josephus, discovered a connection between the 12 stones of high priest Aaron’s breastplate, the zodiac signs, and the months of the year. The custom of actually wearing these stones originated around the 16th century in Poland, where it was fashionable to wear a different one every month.

The zodiac gemstones are based on the 12 signs that are related to the placement of the constellations in relationship to the sun. Certain gemstones are particularly beneficial for each zodiac sign.

The Jewelry Industry Council of America, the American Gem Trade Association, Jewelers of America, and Britain National Association of Goldsmiths created the standardized list of birthstones.
