This area is another great source of rubies, and these are a newer phenomenon than the other rubies mentioned. The rubies are found in rocks in the Vatomandry region of Madagascar. The rubies tend to be Red, Pink and Orange in terms of colouring and highlights.
These are also high-quality rubies, second only to the Burmese rubies in quality and are mined in regions towards the South-east of Bangkok. They are much darker than the Burmese rubies because in addition to Chromium, they also contains traces of iron. In terms of colour, they are liable to have traces of Brown or Burgundy
Natural sources for rubies produce the finest examples of the stone; the main areas for mining rubies include Burma (now called Myanmar), Thailand, Cambodia and in smaller quantities Afghanistan.
Pearls, June, are one of the few gemstones that are organic. Pearls are created by an oyster or other mollusk, as a reaction to a bit of sand or other irritating material. The vast majority of pearls are cultured, meaning a round base is introduced into the pearl, and the oysters manufacture the pearl coating around it. The longer the base stays in the oyster the thicker the coating. Pearl earrings are a classic gift for young girls. Fresh water pearls are stunning when several strands are intertwined into a single rope.
Can you choose the perfect gift when you only know one thing? Yes you can. All you need to know is the month of the recipient’s birth. There’s no guessing what size would fit or if the color is right. Birthstone jewelry is an excellent gift for just about anyone from toddler to grandparents. It’s a personal gift without being too intimate.
Opal is for October. The gemstone is never faceted, with the exception of Paraguay fire opals, but always polished. It exhibits brilliant flashes of rainbows and iridescence in its depth. Oiling opals is important to maintaining its fire. Black opals are more valuable than white or pink because the flashing rainbow effect is more pronounced against the black background.
