Physical Description
Birthstones are precious or semi-precious gems that correspond to a particular birth month or astrological sign. It’s unclear what culture originated the birthstone tradition; some scholars say Egypt while others connect the tradition with the 12 tribes of Israel. In a modern context, the tradition of birthstone jewelry became popular at the turn of the 20th century in eastern Europe. Today, it is popular across the globe, spanning different cultures, aesthetics, and traditions. Birthstones are said to bring good luck to the wearer, and are a hallmark of bespoke, custom, and bridal jewelry.
Birthstones can score anywhere from a 6 to 10 on the Mohs scale of Mineral Hardness, which means they are hard stones and can withstand daily wear and tear. However, they can still be scratched or chipped, so it’s essential to be gentle during the cleaning process. You should remove birthstone jewelry when cleaning, gardening, or going to the gym.
