August Birthstone - Peridot

The modern birthstone for August is Peridot and I have to say I love it to bits. 

This necklace has a Lapis Lazuli star with little hanging Peridots on an oxidised silver chain.

Available from my shop here

The traditional birthstone is Sardonyx, I have just launched a new range featuring Sardonyx and lava. It is still waiting to be loaded to the website though

The cabochon birthstone is Carnelian, a pretty orangy red colour as seen here

July's Birthstone - Ruby

The Ruby is July's birthstone. They are meant to be nurturing, help with spiritual wisdom, attainment of values, economic stability, protection from distress.


I have found some amazing jewellery made from jewellery. 

This necklace from Liv jewellery
