If you are having a stiff time deciding on a gift, maybe a gem of the season may be ideal. It is a magnificent way to give a gift "just for the reason that" as well as a fun way to rejoice a finicky time of year. Conventionally, the year is broken up into four seasons. Each season has an allied gemstone. Spring is known as the time of growth and trust. The whole thing is verdant and green. Therefore, the spring gemstone of Emerald seems particularly appropriate. Other spring stones: Amethyst, Green Diamond, Chrysoberyl, Spinel, Pink Topaz, Peridot. Summer is a time of reward, love and hot climates. The glow of the summer gemstone Ruby shines all through for this season. Further summer stones: Zircon, Garnet, Alexandrite, Spinel, Pink Topaz, and Fire Opal. Autumn: is the time of harvest, truth and the blue autumn sky. The expect of the fall gemstone Sapphire works fine for this season. Other autumn stones: Hyacinth, Topaz, Jacinth, Cairogorm, Garnet, Tourmaline, Oriental Chrysolite. Winter is a time bright light alongside the snow and ice. The sparkles of the winter gemstone Diamond will make brighter any winter day. Other winter stones: Quartz, White Sapphire, Turquoise, Moonstone, Pearl, Labradorite. |
