tourmaline jewelry.mp4
Happy Birthday, October people! Tourmaline is one of the birthstones for October. One of the most remarkable aspects of tourmaline is its incredible color range. It can be found in almost every color of the rainbow, including green, blue, red, pink, yellow, brown, black, and even colorless varieties. Some tourmalines even exhibit multiple colors within a single crystal, referred to as “bi-color” or “watermelon” tourmalines. An Egyptian legend explains this variety by saying the gemstone traveled along a rainbow, gathering a diverse array of colors as it went. We have a variety of tourmaline jewelry and rough and loose finished stones to celebrate an October birthday or an eighth wedding anniversary. #OctoberBirthstone #Tourmaline #Opal #CrystalShop #RockShop #JewelryStore #Lapidary #RocksAndMinerals #Specimens #RockCarvings #RockSpheres #CrystalTowers #CrystalPalmStones #CustomJewelry #JewelryRepair #Metaphysical #Crystals #Gems #Fossils

The sapphire, September's birthstone, has been popular since the Middle Ages. Its celestial blue color symbolized heaven and attracted divine favor and wise judgment.
Greeks, Buddhists, and Hindus believed in sapphire's spiritual and guiding properties. Early Christian kings also used sapphire for protection.
Ancient Hebrews believed the Ten Commandments were engraved on sapphire tablets, and historians now believe the blue gemstone referenced in the Bible may have been lapis lazuli.
