Ready to learn more about these blue gems? We thought you’d never ask! Get ready to learn all about the physical properties and holistic attributes of December’s blue birthstones.

Tanzanite Birthstone

Let’s kick off this December birthstone party with tanzanite, a blue-violet gemstone hailing from an African country. Any guesses as to which country? We’ll give you a hint: it’s practically in the name! That’s right, tanzanite comes from the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. What’s unique about tanzanite is that, unlike other gemstones that are sourced from around the world, tanzanite is exclusively from Tanzania.

A relatively new gemstone discovery, tanzanite wasn’t on the gemstone radar until the late 1960s when it was first discovered.

Not quite as blue as a sapphire, and not quite as purple as amethyst, tanzanite combines the best of both worlds on the color spectrum. Adding to its desirability, tanzanite is affordable and easily cut into a variety of shapes and sizes. Do you know what that means? Endless jewelry designs! Tanzanite lends itself well to many jewelry items, including necklace pendants, earrings, and rings. Veil yourself in violet-blue this holiday season with a tanzanite jewel!

Zircon Birthstone

Departing from the deep, blue-violet color of tanzanite, zircon is a vivid aqua blue. And while zircon comes in a spectrum of colors, including warm hues of red and orange, blue is the most popular. It’s easy to see why! This bright, dazzling gem comes from the Asian countries of Thailand, Cambodia and Southern Vietnam.

Asian gemstones are steeped in holistic properties, and zircon is no different! Wearing zircon is believed to garner you with relief from pain. Additionally, zircon is known to enhance appetite and provide protection to travelers.

In recent years, there’s been some confusion about blue zircon simply because of its name. Many people mistake zircon for cubic zirconia, a lab fabricated diamond-substitute. However, the two couldn’t be farther from one another in appearance, composition, and value. For starters, cubic zirconia is colorless and man-made.

Blue zircon, on the other hand, is a vibrant, lush hue of radiant blue and is organically mined from zirconium silicate deposits. During the Middle Ages, zircon adorned travelers and warriors who believed it had the power to protect them from plagues, evil spirits, and road wounds. Bottom line: blue zircon is a fierce and fiery natural gemstone. If you want to adorn yourself in a twinkling blizzard of gemstone jewelry, zircon has your name all over it!

Turquoise Birthstone

The name turquoise comes from the French word for “Turkish stone,” and was first discovered in the 13th century. If you’ve ever visited the American Southwest, you’ve stumbled upon troves of turquoise vendors selling Native-American jewelry. That’s because turquoise is a vital component of traditional Native American culture.

This significant and sacred gemstone is known as the “Stone of Life” to Native Americans, as it represents all living things. While greenish-blue speckled with shades of sand is the classic color of turquoise, it’s available in a variety of colors. As such, Native Americans regard it as a stone representative of the vivid colors of the earth and their sacred land. Turquoise is of particular importance to the Navajo, who wear the stone to protect against evil. Additionally, the Navajo tell of the Changing Woman, Estsanatlehi, who adorns herself in turquoise.

In jewelry, turquoise is extremely popular, especially as a statement piece. It’s often partnered with other gemstones and almost always set in sterling silver. Some of the most popular turquoise jewelry items are turquoise rings and bracelets. However, these gems are often placed in earrings, necklace pendants, and even clothing and handbags.

It’s no secret why turquoise holds so much sacred energy: it’s one of the oldest gemstones in the world! Add to that intrigue an amalgamation of vibrant teal colors and patterns, and you’ve got one of the most unique gems around!

Jack Frost vas gricka po nosu? Tada ugodno do ovih prosinačkih kamena! Svaki od ovih dragulja hladnih tonova odražava zimsku hladnu temperaturu, ali zapaljen je svojim živahnim crtama i sjajem.

Ako ste se ikada osjećali nezadovoljno što ste prosinačka beba i rođendan vam je priređen za praznike, vaša je utjeha što imate na raspolaganju tri prekrasna kamena za rođenje : tanzanit , tirkiz i cirkon . Svaki od ovih prosinačkih kamena rođenih u zimskoj je plavoj nijansi. Ali nemojte pogriješiti: svi su jedinstveno svoji.

Na primjer, tirkizni akva print poput kamena nudi zemljanu privlačnost. U međuvremenu i tanzanit i cirkon svjetlucaju blistavom svjetlucavošću.

Poanta je: imate mogućnosti. Kako se približavamo kraju godine oko sunca i započinju blagdanske svečanosti, razmislite o dodavanju prosinačkog kamena na vašu listu želja za odmor.

Jeste li spremni saznati više o ovim plavim draguljima? Mislili smo da nikad nećete pitati! Pripremite se da naučite sve o fizičkim svojstvima i holističkim svojstvima prosinačkih plavih kamena.

Tanzanitski kamen rođenja

Započnimo ovu prosinačku proslavu rođenih kamena s tanzanitom, plavo-ljubičastim dragim kamenom koji potječe iz afričke zemlje. Ima li nagađanja u kojoj zemlji? Dat ćemo vam savjet: to je praktički u imenu! Točno, tanzanit dolazi iz podnožja planine Kilimandžaro u Tanzaniji. Jedinstveno u vezi s tanzanitom je to što je, za razliku od ostalih dragog kamenja koji se dobivaju iz cijelog svijeta, tanzanit isključivo iz Tanzanije.

Relativno novo otkriće dragog kamenja, tanzanit je bio na radaru dragog kamenja tek krajem 1960-ih, kada je prvi put otkriven.

Ne baš plav kao safir, a ni purpurni poput ametista, tanzanit kombinira najbolje iz oba svijeta u spektru boja. Uz poželjnost, tanzanit je pristupačan i lako se reže u razne oblike i veličine. Znate li što to znači? Beskrajni dizajni nakita! Tanzanit se dobro podudara s mnogim nakitnim predmetima, uključujući ogrlice, naušnice i prstenje. Zavešite se u ljubičasto-plavoj boji u ovo blagdansko vrijeme s tanzanit draguljem!

Cirkonski kamen rođenja

Polazeći od duboke, plavo-ljubičaste boje tanzanita, cirkon je živopisna akva plava. I dok cirkon dolazi u spektru boja, uključujući tople nijanse crvene i narančaste, plava je najpopularnija. Lako je shvatiti zašto! Ovaj svijetli, blistavi dragulj dolazi iz azijskih zemalja Tajlanda, Kambodže i južnog Vijetnama.

Azijsko drago kamenje natopljeno je holističkim svojstvima, a cirkon se ne razlikuje! Vjeruje se da vas nošenje cirkona donosi olakšanje od boli. Uz to, poznato je da cirkon pojačava apetit i pruža zaštitu putnicima.

Posljednjih godina došlo je do zabune oko plavog cirkona samo zbog njegovog imena. Mnogi ljudi zamjenjuju cirkon s kubnim cirkonijem, nadomjeskom dijamanta koji je proizveden u laboratoriju. Međutim, njih dvoje nisu mogli biti udaljeni jedno od drugoga izgledom, sastavom i vrijednošću. Za početak, kubni cirkonij je bezbojan i proizveden od čovjeka.

S druge strane, plavi cirkon je živahne, bujne boje blistavo plave boje i organski je dobiven iz naslaga cirkonijevog silikata. Tijekom srednjeg vijeka cirkon je krasio putnike i ratnike koji su vjerovali da ih ima moć zaštititi od pošasti, zlih duhova i rana na cesti. Dno crta: plavi cirkon žestoki je i vatreni prirodni dragi kamen. Ako se želite ukrasiti blistavom mećavom nakita od dragog kamenja, cirkon ima vaše ime!

Tirkizni kamen rođenja

Naziv tirkiz potječe od francuske riječi za "turski kamen", a prvi put je otkriven u 13. stoljeću. Ako ste ikada posjetili američki jugozapad, slučajno ste naletjeli na zalihe tirkiznih prodavača koji prodaju indijanski nakit. To je zato što je tirkizna vitalna komponenta tradicionalne indijanske kulture.

Ovaj značajan i sveti dragi kamen za indijanske stanovnike poznat je kao „Kamen života“, jer predstavlja sva živa bića. Iako je zelenkasto-plava išarana nijansama pijeska klasična tirkizna boja, dostupna je u raznim bojama. Kao takvog, Indijanci ga smatraju kamenim predstavnikom živih boja zemlje i njihove svete zemlje. Tirkiz je od posebne važnosti za Navaho koji nose kamen kako bi se zaštitili od zla. Uz to, Navajo govore o ženi koja se mijenja, Estsanatlehi, koja se krasi u tirkiznoj boji.

U nakitu je tirkizna izuzetno popularna, posebno kao statement komad. Često je u partnerstvu s drugim dragim kamenjem i gotovo je uvijek postavljen u srebro. Neki od najpopularnijih tirkiznih predmeta nakita su tirkizni prstenovi i narukvice. Međutim, ti su dragulji često smješteni u naušnicama, privjescima ogrlicama, pa čak i odjeći i torbama.

Nije tajna zašto tirkiz sadrži toliko svete energije: to je jedan od najstarijih dragog kamenja na svijetu! Dodajte toj intrigi spajanje živopisnih boja i uzoraka teak, i dobili ste jedan od najpopularnijih dragulja!
