Customer Reviews
These earrings are georgeous. The stones are bright and a good size. They look great on and they were admired the first time I wore them. They come over the edge of the ear and really catch the light. Great for casual or dress up. The picture does not do them justice, I'm really delighted with them.
These earrings are just perfect! The stones are nicely sized for earrings, with vivid colors. They are the right size for me, between 1/2 and 3/4 inches, a good length for women with shorter hair. The multi-colored stones easliy match different types of clothing...making it very easy to dress up or dress down, as needed for any occasion. I definitely recommend these earrings to other shoppers, I hope you will enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed mine.

About Birthstone Jewelry
November Birthstone: Citrine
Citrine is a golden yellow form of quartz, with a sunny hue that is naturally energizing and uplifting. November's birthstone is said to promote happiness and creativity and to nurture friendships.
History of Birthstones
Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.
