About Birthstone Jewelry

December Birthstone: Blue Topaz

Blue topaz is prized for its soothing and captivating blue color, which is usually divided into three categories: sky blue for the palest shade, Swiss blue for the more saturated medium shade, and London blue for the deepest shade. Also known as an artist's stone, blue topaz is reputed to inspire creativity and enhance concentration

History of Birthstones

Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.

There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.

The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.

This review is from: 10K White Gold Swiss and Sky Blue Topaz Angel Pendant with Diamond-Accent (Jewelry)

Although the pendant is only about 3/4 of an inch wide, the design is very cohesive and elegant. It combines the beauty of white gold, diamonds, and two shades of blue topaz to create an abstract depiction of an angel - the colors and material complement each other so well to uphold that theme.

It's definitely a great gift for a close one who is born in December, which has blue topaz as its birthstone. I plan on giving it to one of my best friends for her birthday and I'm sure she'll cherish it.

If you can buy this item at a discounted price, that would be great, but I would have definitely bought this item for $100 it is normally sold for at Amazon. Out of all the jewelry I bought at Amazon, I enjoy this one the most by far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dainty Chain, December 12, 2009

The pendant is very nice. It's not too small (sometimes pictures are blown up so big that it looks like something totally different than what you end up getting delivered to you, but this one looks exactly as shown on the picture). The only reason why I gave it four stars instead of the total five is because the chain is so dainty. I understand it's only 10K gold, but I've seen silver that was nicer. I bought a different 10K white gold chain to replace the one that comes with the pendant because it looked like the chain would fall apart if I just touch it. Overall though, it's still a very good bargain for the price that you're getting it for (even with the cheap looking chain and all). I'd recommend buying it.

Arrived within a week with Free Super Saving Shipping. Came in a very nice jewelry box and pouch. Nothing was damaged during shipping and everything arrived new. I had my local jeweler examine it to see if indeed it was real gems, and they are. So I was very pleased with that since when I bought it, it was during Christmas time, and I got it for under $100.

This is the firt time I purchased something like this online. I was not really sure what to expect. Overall I'm pretty happy with my purchase. The chain was a little fragile, but all and all it seemed pretty nice. It was def a little smaller than I had hoped, but it still looked nice.
