December boasts not one, but two captivating birthstones: the vibrant turquoise and the celestial tanzanite. Each offers a unique story, steeped in history, symbolism, and captivating beauty.

The Duality Of December Birthstones

For millennia, turquoise has captivated cultures worldwide. Egyptians adorned pharaohs with this vibrant blue stone, believing it symbolised protection and divine connection.  Native American tribes revered it as a symbol of life, wisdom, and communication with the spirit world. Its mesmerising blue-green hues, reminiscent of tranquil waters, continue to inspire awe.

Then, we have tanzanite. Discovered only in the late 20th century, tanzanite boasts a captivating rarity and beauty. Found in just a small region of Tanzania – hence the name – this gemstone displays a breathtaking blend of blues and violets. Legend has it that a massive bushfire swept across the African savanna, igniting volcanic deposits and creating the first tanzanite crystals.
