Our Product Story
Tourmaline is a modern gem, but it has nonetheless found its way onto the list of birthstones, becoming an "alternate birthstone" for October. Perhaps this honor results from tourmaline's versatility and broad color range. Or perhaps from the fact that red-and-green tourmaline, in which the red and green occur side by side in the same stone, is reminiscent of turning leaves.
The diamond is the birthstone for April. Its origin derives from the Greek word "adamas," meaning unconquerable and indestructible. The Greeks believed the fire in the diamond reflected the constant flame of love.
Gold in its pure form is a yellow metallic element. It is one of the three noble metals and surpassed by none in its innate resistance to corrosion, malleability and attractive color. This soft metal performs best when alloyed with other metals to make it stronger. To produce rose gold, gold is alloyed with copper to give it a warm pink hue.
