Chrysoprase – Your Birthstone For May
The traditional birthstones, on both the official American and British Birthstones Lists, for those born in May is Emerald. These are a little beyond our knowledge and means so we have elected to stock the alternative gemstone from the British Birthstone List, namely Chrysoprase. The birthstone colour for this semi precious gemstone is green and it is said to bestow fidelity, foresight, goodness, love, patience and understanding on the wearer . . . 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.
