Lapis Lazuli – Your Birthstone For September
The traditional birthstones, on both the official American and British Birthstones Lists, for those born in September is Sapphire. These are a little beyond our knowledge and means so we have elected to stock the alternative gemstone from the British Birthstone List, namely Lapis Lazuli. The birthstone colour for this semi precious gemstone is deep blue or indigo and it is said to give the wearer commitment, loyalty, serenity, sincerity, and truth . . . so be sure to use it to personalise your jewellery!
To see both the American and British Birthstones by month and to read about semi precious birthstones, birthstone colours, birthstone meanings, and birthstone history use our Birthstones Guide, or to learn about individual semi precious beads and gemstones have a look at the BigBeadLittleBead Glossary of Gemstone & Minerals.
