Choosing Birthstone Jewellery
Birthstone jewellery is a thoughtful way to mark a birthday, a new arrival or another significant date. Some people choose the stone traditionally associated with a birth month; others prefer a colour that carries a personal meaning. Either approach is equally valid.
Begin with the colour, then the piece
Consider whether the recipient usually wears studs, pendants or rings. A modest gemstone pendant can be worn often, while a brightly coloured pair of earrings offers a more noticeable gift. Look at the stone's actual shade and the way it sits in the metal, particularly if the gemstone changes appearance under different lighting.
Not all gemstones have the same care needs, so check the species and setting before choosing a piece for daily wear. Our lab grown gemstone jewellery collection brings together different colours and designs for comparison.

Birthstone Jewellery FAQs
What matters most when choosing birthstone jewellery?
Birthstone jewellery can make a thoughtful gift, especially when the gemstone colour holds personal meaning. We'd suggest starting with the recipient's favourite jewellery style and metal, then checking the stone traditionally associated with their birth month. Some months have more than one accepted birthstone, so there's room for personal choice. It's worth looking at the actual gemstone and design rather than feeling bound to a particular tradition.
How should I check the size and fit of birthstone jewellery?
For birthstone jewellery, we'd compare practical details as well as the symbolism. A necklace needs the right chain length, earrings should suit the wearer's preferred scale and a ring needs a comfortable size. A close-up can make a small stone look quite different from how it appears on the body. If you're buying a gift, the recipient's existing jewellery is often the most useful reference.
How do I look after birthstone jewellery in regular use?
Different birthstones belong to different mineral families, so we wouldn't recommend the same cleaning method for all of them. Some are relatively hard, while others are more sensitive to knocks, chemicals or heat. We'd follow care guidance for the actual gemstone and keep the piece separately from harder jewellery when stored. Fastenings and settings should be checked too, particularly if it's worn every day.
