Birthstones are one of the easiest ways to make jewelry personal: one little color that stands for a birthday, a kid or a month that matters. Here are the birthstones by month, the color to pick on our pieces for each one, and the birthstone jewelry that comes in all twelve.

Birthstones by month

The traditional birthstone comes first, then the color you'll choose on our birthstone pieces.

  • January: garnet. Choose Garnet.
  • February: amethyst. Choose Purple.
  • March: aquamarine. Choose Light Blue.
  • April: diamond. Choose White.
  • May: emerald. Choose Green.
  • June: pearl, with alexandrite and moonstone as other June stones. Choose Pearl.
  • July: ruby. Choose Red.
  • August: peridot. Choose Light Green (on the Birthstone Huggie Earring, May and August share Green).
  • September: sapphire. Choose Dark Blue.
  • October: opal, with tourmaline as the other October stone. Choose Opal.
  • November: topaz, with citrine as the other November stone. Choose Amber.
  • December: turquoise, with tanzanite and zircon as other December stones. Choose Turquoise.

Our birthstone pieces show each month as a color. The Birthstone Ring and Birthstone Huggie Earring use a colored zircon, opal or pearl style bead, and the Birthstone Charm is a brass crystal. Bead color and style vary by month, so check the month you pick on each listing.

Birthstone jewelry that comes in every month

The Birthstone Bangle

The Birthstone Bangle wraps custom birthstones around a slim 4mm gold bangle, 14k gold plated, in 60mm, 65mm or 70mm. Wear your own month, or add one for each of your people and build a birthstone bracelet stack with a story. Want a few at once? The Build Your Own Birthstone Bangle Stack comes as a stack of 2, 3, 5 or 7 Birthstone Bangles.

The Birthstone Ring

The Birthstone Ring is a 14k gold plated ring with a tiny stone, about 2mm, for every month of the year, in sizes 5 to 10. Look inside and you'll find A+B lasered in as a hidden detail. Wear your own, a partner's or one for each of your kids, and stack them with your gold stacking rings. The Build Your Own Birthstone Ring Stack comes as a stack of 2, 3 or 4.

The Birthstone Huggie Earring

The Birthstone Huggie Earring holds a tiny colored bead in a shade for every month, plus pink and orange for anyone who wants to play. Wear your own month, or line up a few colors along one ear and turn your earring stack into birthstone earrings for the whole family.

How to wear birthstone jewelry

  • Just yours: your own month on a Birthstone Ring or a single Birthstone Bangle.
  • A family stack: one Birthstone Bangle or Birthstone Ring for each person, worn together.
  • With your everyday bangles: the Henley Bangle and the twisted Greer Bangle also come in 60mm, 65mm and 70mm, so they line up with your Birthstone Bangles.
  • On a charm necklace: add a Birthstone Charm to the Jules Necklace next to a Gold Bubble Letter Charm for an initial and a month on one chain. Our guide to building your own charm necklace has more ideas.

A birthstone is an easy gift for a birthday, a new baby or a mom who'd love her kids' months on her wrist. The Birthstone Bangle, Ring, Huggie and Charm all come in every month, and you'll find them together in our For the Mom collection.
