February Birthstone: Amethyst
Because of its regal purple hue, amethyst has long been a favorite of kings, queens, and other nobles. While it signifies wealth and strength, amethyst is also a symbol of soberness, tranquility, and wisdom.
History of BirthstonesChances 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: Yellow Gold Plated Sterling Silver Multi-Gemstone Necklace, 17" (Jewelry)
I bought this when it was a Gold Box special and it was a big surprise when I received it. It looked expensive and very elegant.
I plan on using it as a gift and I think it will greatly appreciated. The quality is wonderful and the stones look very real.

This review is from: Yellow Gold Plated Sterling Silver Multi-Gemstone Necklace, 17" (Jewelry)
This is a pretty necklace. However unlike the other two reviews I am unable to rate this necklace a full five stars. It just falls a tad short due to two reasons.
The gemstone portion of the necklace is fairly small. It covers only a fraction of the neck. So for the rest of the neck, it is just the gold chain. The gemstones itself are definitely not as vivid as pictured. This is true for all the stones except the teardrop garnet. Due to the pale colors, the garnet in contrast really attracts attention at the base of the necklace. The introductory price under $30 makes this a worthwhile purchase.

I was so disappointed with this necklace..
So lightweight like a fake doll's neckplace.. It was overpriced and I wouldn't recommend it even at its sale price of $29..
