October birthstone jewelry

Both of October’s beautiful birthstones: opal and tourmaline are a kaleidoscope of colors and would delight almost everyone. Even if they are not born in October!

In fact both of these birthstones are believed to have come from rainbows! Legend tells us that tourmaline has all of it’s delightful colors because the gem had a journey along a rainbow where it gathered all the the rainbow’s colors.

Opals are also believed to come from rainbows. In fact it was called the “Goddess of Rainbows” by Native Americans. They believed that the opal gem was at first a beautiful Goddess. However, she turned herself into stone to avoid the sexual advances of other gods. The Australian aborigines were also fascinated by opal’s many colors and they called her the ‘Rainbow Serpent.

I love jewelry, and especially birthstones because they seem to have mystical qualities.

October is blessed with two lovely birthstones: opal and tourmaline.

Synthetic Opal Jewelry

Traditionally, opal is not usually considered one of the four precious gems: diamond, ruby, sapphire and emerald.

However, it is definitely precious. It takes a lot to mine opal, and the colors are so beautiful that it is rare.

Therefore, good quality synthetic opals are made in the lab.
