AUGUST - Peridot / Sardonyx
Sunny yellow-green peridot (pronounced pear-a-doe) and red-brown sardonyx are both ancient gems symbolizing courage for those of August birth. The limegreen color of transparent peridot has been a long-time favorite of women. And the richly-hued opaque sardonyx was a talisman worn by Roman soldiers and is still prized for men’s signet rings today. |

SEPTEMBER - Sapphire Brilliant blue sapphire reflects the bright color of September skies and represents wisdom and clear thinking for those born in September. A form of the mineral corundum, sapphire is sparkling clear and comes in dozens of vivid colors - everything except red. When corundum is red, it’s called ruby. |

OCTOBER - Opal / Tourmaline Bright harlequin colors like autumn leaves are typical of both opal and tourmaline, which also represent the power of hope for the October born. Precious opal displays a dazzling array of vivid colors against a white or black background. Sparkling tourmaline is available in a wider variety of colors than almost any other gem. |
