Many people do not believe in things like birth stones and star signs. While others take them very seriously indeed. For me, I think they are a bit of fun, and are entertaining. It reminds me too of the poem on the day of the week that we are born. I have been looking for a reliable chart to illustrate the birth stones for each month of the year, and found this one below, from the American Gem Society.

We are now getting to the end of May, for which the birthstone is Emerald. In a few days we will be in June. Hard to believe isn’t it that half the year has almost gone!
The birthstone for June is Pearls. I have been busy creating pearl jewellery. Our pearl jewellery is made with genuine freshwater pearls, that vary in shape from baroque pearls to potato pearls. To view our latest collection, click here:
