A birthstone turns a piece of jewelry into a personal one. It marks a birth month, so it makes a gift feel chosen rather than picked. Loretana offers the main birthstone colors in cubic zirconia set in 925 sterling silver, so you get the color and meaning at an everyday price. Here is the month by month guide, and how to wear yours.

An honest note on the stones
Loretana birthstones are AAAAA cubic zirconia chosen to match each birthstone color, not natural mined gems. That is what keeps them affordable and bright, set in genuine 925 sterling silver.
Choosing a birthstone gift
Match the stone to the person's birth month, or to the meaning of the color: green for wealth, red for love, blue for protection, white for clarity. More on that in jewelry by meaning.
