We're all
familiar with birthstones, but did you know that there are specific
gemstones associated with various wedding anniversaries, too? Several
trade associations in the jewelry industry* have endorsed a list
of suggested gemstones for each anniversary.
When selecting a jewelry gift for your
spouse, consider incorporating the gemstone of your anniversary
year. We've listed each applicable gemstone below, along with a
gift suggestion (click on the link to learn more about the suggested
piece of jewelry).
Listed below are the anniversary years
and the applicable gemstone.
Another idea: perhaps you can ask a
jeweler to design a necklace or bracelet in which a new gemstone could
be added each year. Or consider the Lifeline
StoryWheels available through Jewelry
Impressions. Each round wheel could be embedded with
different gemstones to represent different milestones in your
relationship.
*These anniversary gemstones have been
endorsed by the American Gem Society, Jewelers of America, the Jewelry Industry Council, the Gemological Institute of America, the American Gem Trade Association, the Cultured Pearl Association of America, and the International Colored Gemstone
Association. |
