December is one of two months with three birthstones: turquoise, tanzanite, and zircon, particularly blue zircon.

The month of December gets its name from the Latin decem, meaning “ten,” because it used to be the tenth month.

Modern December celebrations include Winter Solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Eve.

The month symbolizes change, camaraderie, and warm reunions during chillier days.

Today, we’ll discuss the symbolism, history, properties, and value of the three December birthstones: turquoise, tanzanite, and zircon.

Historical & Cultural Significance of December Birthstones

December has three birthstones: turquoise, tanzanite, and zircon.

But why does December have 3 birthstones? Birthstone lists have changed, and December’s gemstones have arguably changed the most.

The earliest birthstones, inspired by Biblical gemstone lists, designated ruby for December.

The modern birthstone list timeline for December stones:

  • 1870: Turquoise; From Tiffany & Co’s “Gregorian Birthstone Poems” pamphlet

  • 1912: Turquoise (primary), lapis lazuli (alternative); From National Association of Jewellers (now Jewellers of America)

  • 1952: Zircon added to 1912 list; From Jewelry Industry Council of America

  • 2002: Tanzanite added

So, what is the real birthstone for December? Turquoise has been listed most consistently, but each birthstone has its own lore and appeal.

Turquoise’s Revered Status in Ancient Civilizations

Turquoise was among the earliest gems. In fact, a 5500-BC Egyptian turquoise bracelet is among the oldest jewelry.

Ancient Egyptians mined turquoise — called mefkat for “joy” — since at least 3000 BC. They wore it for protection and status, associating it with sky & motherhood goddess Hathor.

Ancient Persian turquoise — called pērōzah, meaning “victory” — was purer, so they believed it was heavenly. They’d set turquoise in turbans, weapons, and mosques.

Ancient Greeks and Romans called turquoise callais and made turquoise beads, necklaces, and rings. Another early name was the Aztec chalchihuitl.

Aztecs viewed turquoise as sacred, passed down from the deity Quetzalcoatl. They believed it embodied fire, burying rulers with turquoise in their mouth..

Similarly, Native American tribes prized turquoise as ceremonial items, talismans, and currency. The Apache tribe attached turquoise to bows to ensure accurate aim.

Turkish travelers introduced Persian turquoise to medieval Europe, which became popular after the 14th century and more so in the Victorian Era. The name “turquoise” dates back to the 1300s, derived from the French turquois, meaning “Turkish.”

Tanzanite’s Modern Discovery & Historical Connections

Tanzanite’s history is much shorter but no less interesting. Many gemologists cite tanzanite as the most significant gemstone discovery since alexandrite in 1834.

This December birthstone was discovered in Tanzania in 1967 by Indian tailor and prospector Manuel de Souza.

De Souza believed it was olivine; others considered dumortierite or cordierite. He called on American geologist Dr. John Saul. Saul tasked his father, Hyman Saul, with taking specimens back to New York. Saul had the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) analyze them. They found that it was a new vanadium-bearing zoisite variety.

Hyman and Saul worked with Tiffany & Co gem buyer Henry Platt to develop a marketing plan. Platt coined the name “tanzanite.”

Zircon’s Fascinating History

Zircon is not only the oldest December birthstone, but it’s also the oldest known mineral on Earth based on Australian specimens dated over 4.4 billion years old!

The name “zircon” may come from the Arabic zarkun, meaning “vermillion,” or the Persian zargun, meaning “gold-colored.”

Warm-colored zircons were called hyacinth or jacinth, after the hyacinthus flower, by ancient Greeks. Another plant connected to zircon is the Kalpa Tree, a wish-granting tree in ancient Indian mythology said to bear green zircon leaves.

There are zircon references in the Bible, but translations vary — the Hebrew shoham likely meant chrysolite and ligyrion could be zircon, amber, or tourmaline.

The name “zircon” came in 1783, but the earliest names were lyncurion (Theophrastus around 300 BC) and chrysolithos (Pliny the Elder in 37 AD).

Zircon gemstone mining goes back to the 1st century AD if not earlier. In Italy and Greece, zircon uses go back to 500 AD.

White zircons being sold as diamond substitutes goes back to when faceting began in the 1300s. By the Victorian era, blue zircon jewelry was favored in mourning jewelry and English estate jewelry.

Geological Marvel: The Formation of Turquoise, Tanzanite, and Zircon

Next, we’ll look at each December birthstone’s formation and mineralogy.

Turquoise Properties

Turquoise is a hydrated copper aluminum phosphate that’s porous, making its Mohs hardness oscillate between 5 to 6. Almost all turquoise is microcrystalline, like chalcedony.

The December birthstone forms as a secondary mineral when copper-rich water alters phosphorus- and aluminum-bearing minerals.

Turquoise is often found mixed with copper minerals like:

China and the US are turquoise’s top sources.

Tanzanite Properties

Tanzanite is a variety of the calcium aluminum silicate zoisite, with a hardness of 6 to 7. Tanzanite is also the rarest birthstone for December, only found in a small area near the Mererani Hills.

Geologists estimate tanzanite formed 585 million years ago. The formation involved tectonic activity, heat, and Tanzania’s unique underground environment.

Zircon Properties

Zircon is a natural zirconium silicate mineral often confused with the zirconium dioxide cubic zirconia, which is usually synthetic.

Among the December birthstones, zircon has the highest Mohs hardness at 7.5. Another unique trait? Containing traces of radioactive substances like uranium. This allows zircon’s properties to change over time and helps geochronologists study ancient geologic events using zircon.

Gem-quality zircons mostly come from Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Myanmar.

Turquoise's Timeless Charm: Unveiling the Sky Stone

Color is the primary feature of turquoise. The December birthstone’s color can be turquoise, blue, green, yellowish-green, and even yellow.

Blues are from copper in the mineral’s formula. Greens come from chromium or vanadium impurities. Yellows come from iron impurities. Rarely, strontium impurities create purple undertones.

You’ll often see colored remnants of the host rock where turquoise formed, present as veins or patches called a “matrix.” The patterns can also be other minerals, like dark limonite webbing or golden pyrite flecks.

Certain sources produce distinct types of turquoise, such as:

  • Persian-Grade: Iran; Robin’s egg blue, no visible matrix

  • Sinai or “Egyptian”: Egypt; Usually greener, more translucent

  • Lynch Station: Virginia; Only source of transparent turquoise

  • Sleeping Beauty: Top American turquoise mine in Arizona; Solid sky blue to deep blue, little to no visible matrix

  • Kingman: Arizona; High-quality usually medium blue with black “water web” or “spiderweb” matrix

  • Bisbee: Arizona; Top-quality royal blue with brownish-red matrix

  • Sonoran Gold: Mexico; High-quality baby blue & lime green with yellow web matrix

  • Mohave: Arizona; Mosaicked with vivid purple, pink, blue, green, and red with bronze veining

Additionally, “turquoise” is sometimes a misnomer:

  • White Buffalo Turquoise: Gray, white, or dyed dolomite

  • African Turquoise: Teal, spotted jasper

  • Bone Turquoise / Occidental Turquoise: Fossil bone containing blue apatite

  • Kallait / Callais / Turquenite: Usually dyed howlite or magnesite

How does tanzanite’s color compare?

Tanzanite's Mesmerizing Blue and Violet Beauty

Tanzanite’s color ranges from blue to purple, usually bluish-violet. Cool lighting will emphasize blues while warmer lighting brings out purples.

The December birthstone’s pleochroism is notable, shifting hues at different angles. Natural tanzanite can shift from violet to blue to yellow-green, brown, or green. Heat treatments cause only blue-to-violet shifts. Rarely, tanzanite is also color-changing.

Vanadium impurities that are heated (naturally or artificially) cause tanzanite’s colors.

Zircon's Colorful Spectrum and Brilliance

Unlike turquoise and tanzanite, zircon December birthstones are more varied. The most popular color, however, is blue zircon.

Zircon’s gemstone colors and causes:

  • Blue: Usually greenish undertones; Almost always heat-treated; Trade names “starlite” or “stremlite”

  • Green: Incredibly rare; Usually brownish, bright green best; May be heat-treated to lighter shade; Trade name “beccarite”

  • “Gold” (Yellow to Orange): More affordable; Heated to be golden-yellow; Trade names “jargon” for light yellow and “melichrysos”

  • Red: Range in shades, usually reddish-brown; Trade name “hyacinth/jacinth” for reddish-brown & transparent

  • Purple: Caused by natural irradiation, lightened by sunlight and heat

  • Colorless / White: Little to no impurities (natural) or heat-treated colored zircons; Affordable alternative to diamond

  • Brown to Black: Most common natural color; Caused by iron oxide impurities

Radioactive elements in zircons can cause decay (metamictization) over time, changing their crystalline structure, colors, and other properties.

“Low zircon” is the oldest and most changed, usually cloudy and orange, yellow, green, or brownish-green. “High zircon” is the least changed and usually blue, colorless, or brownish-orange. Jewelry usually contains high zircon.

Color is just one part of the December birthstones’ grading.

Evaluating Quality: Turquoise, Tanzanite, and Zircon Characteristics

Gemstone quality is typically graded on color, cut, clarity, carat weight, and treatments.

Turquoise is a bit unique, graded on color, matrix, and texture. Dense textures have better polish luster; coarser textures have worse polish luster.

Color

Turquoise: The most valuable turquoise color is bright “robin’s egg” or “sky” blue with even distribution and no undertones. Green or greenish-blue turquoise is more affordable.

Medium-dark tones are the most valuable, as medium tones bring out turquoise’s vibrance best. Darker tones are usually more dull-looking.

Color-zoning usually lowers value, but one exception is the rare “bird’s eye” pattern.

Tanzanite: Tanzanite can be purple to blue. The most valuable colors are vibrant pure blue, but bright purplish-blue and violet-blue are also sought-after. The best tone is 75 to 85 percent. Strong pleochroism or color-changes are value boosters.

Zircon: Despite the range of zircon colors, the priciest and most popular is blue. Browns and reddish-browns are common, while vivid greens and reds are more valuable.

Cut

Turquoise: Most turquoise becomes cabochons. Inlay, carvings, or beads are also common.

Tanzanite: Many gem cutters prioritize retaining tanzanite’s weight in faceted cuts, so the resulting gems are usually more purple than blue. Common shapes are cushion and oval cuts.

Zircon: Faceted zircons are usually cut to maximize their luster, brilliance, and dispersion. Challenges include avoiding facet doubling (high birefringence) and chipping. Common shapes are brilliant rounds, ovals, step, or mixed cuts.

Cat’s eye zircons or tanzanites must be cut as cabochons.

Clarity, Transparency & Matrix

Clarity describes the degree of visible inclusions, which lowers transparency and value. Inclusions that cause chatoyancy, rare “cat’s eye” tanzanites and zircons, are exceptions.

Turquoise: Turquoise is typically opaque, so rare transparent to translucent specimens are pricier. Top-value turquoise birthstones have no visible matrix, but some matrix patterns like dark “spider-webs” are sought-after.

Tanzanite: Tanzanites have Type I clarity, so visible inclusions are uncommon and will lower value. Fractures can lower durability and value.

Zircon: Zircons have Type II clarity, so minor visible inclusions are expected outside of high-quality specimens. Untreated zircons may look cloudy.

Carat Weight

Turquoise: Turquoise birthstones come in various sizes. Larger specimens often have more apparent matrices, so big, matrix-free turquoise specimens are pricier.

Tanzanite: Tanzanite is available in various sizes, but price-per-carat jumps for gems over 1 carat and 3 carats. Oddly, tanzanites usually have better coloring in larger sizes.

Zircon: Size ranges vary by zircon’s color. Rarer colors like purple and red are smallest, yellow and orange go up to 5 carats, while blue and green go up to 10 carats. Larger size often means lower quality.

Treatments

Turquoise: Treatments for turquoise are often done to enhance their color, durability, and/or shine. Oil and wax coatings are most common. Other turquoise treatments include dyeing, soaking (Zachery treatment), or stabilizing the birthstone.

Tanzanite: Almost all tanzanite gems are heat-treated. A less desirable, rarer treatment is chemical coating.

Zircon: Heat treatments for zircon are routine and stable. Heating can make “low” zircon less metamict, improve clarity, or alter coloring. Most often, brown zircons are heated to become blue. Heat can also create colorless, yellow, light green, red, or golden zircons.

Tanzaniet Geboortesteen

Laten we dit geboortesteenfeest in december beginnen met tanzaniet, een blauwviolette edelsteen afkomstig uit een Afrikaans land. Enig idee naar welk land? We geven je een hint: het zit praktisch in de naam! Dat klopt, tanzaniet komt van de uitlopers van de Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Het unieke aan tanzaniet is dat, in tegenstelling tot andere edelstenen die afkomstig zijn van over de hele wereld, tanzaniet uitsluitend uit Tanzania komt.

Een relatief nieuwe ontdekking van edelstenen, tanzaniet stond pas eind jaren zestig op de edelsteenradar toen het voor het eerst werd ontdekt.

Niet zo blauw als een saffier, en niet zo paars als amethist, tanzaniet combineert het beste van beide werelden op het kleurenspectrum. Naast de wenselijkheid is tanzaniet betaalbaar en gemakkelijk in verschillende vormen en maten te snijden. Weet jij wat dat betekend? Eindeloze sieraden ontwerpen! Tanzaniet leent zich goed voor veel sieraden, waaronder kettinghangers, oorbellen en ringen. Sluier jezelf deze feestdagen in violetblauw met een tanzanietjuweel!

Zirkoon Geboortesteen

Vertrekkend van de diepe, blauw-violette kleur van tanzaniet, is zirkoon een levendig aquablauw. En hoewel zirkoon in een spectrum van kleuren verkrijgbaar is, waaronder warme tinten rood en oranje, is blauw het populairst. Het is gemakkelijk te zien waarom! Dit heldere, oogverblindende juweeltje komt uit de Aziatische landen Thailand, Cambodja en Zuid-Vietnam.

Aziatische edelstenen zijn doordrenkt van holistische eigenschappen, en zirkoon is niet anders! Er wordt aangenomen dat het dragen van zirkoon je pijn verlicht. Bovendien is bekend dat zirkoon de eetlust bevordert en reizigers bescherming biedt.

In de afgelopen jaren is er wat verwarring geweest over blauwe zirkoon, simpelweg vanwege de naam. Veel mensen verwarren zirkoon voor kubieke zirkonia, een in het laboratorium vervaardigde diamantvervanger. De twee konden echter niet verder van elkaar verwijderd zijn qua uiterlijk, compositie en waarde. Om te beginnen is zirconia kleurloos en door de mens gemaakt.

Blauwe zirkoon daarentegen is een levendige, weelderige tint van stralend blauw en wordt organisch gewonnen uit afzettingen van zirkoniumsilicaat. Tijdens de middeleeuwen sierde zirkoon reizigers en krijgers die geloofden dat het de kracht had om hen te beschermen tegen plagen, boze geesten en verkeerswonden. Kortom: blauwe zirkoon is een felle en vurige natuurlijke edelsteen. Als je jezelf wilt versieren in een fonkelende sneeuwstorm van edelsteensieraden, staat zirkoon helemaal op je naam!

Turkoois Geboortesteen

De naam turkoois komt van het Franse woord voor 'Turkse steen' en werd voor het eerst ontdekt in de 13e eeuw. Als je ooit het Amerikaanse zuidwesten hebt bezocht, ben je een groot aantal turquoise verkopers tegengekomen die Indiaanse sieraden verkopen. Dat komt omdat turkoois een essentieel onderdeel is van de traditionele Indiaanse cultuur.

Deze belangrijke en heilige edelsteen staat bekend als de "Steen van het leven" voor indianen, omdat het alle levende wezens vertegenwoordigt. Hoewel groenachtig blauw gespikkeld met zandtinten de klassieke kleur van turkoois is, is het verkrijgbaar in verschillende kleuren. Als zodanig beschouwen indianen het als een steen die representatief is voor de levendige kleuren van de aarde en hun heilige land. Turkoois is van bijzonder belang voor de Navajo, die de steen dragen om te beschermen tegen het kwaad. Bovendien vertellen de Navajo over de veranderende vrouw, Estsanatlehi, die zichzelf in turkoois siert.

In sieraden is turkoois enorm populair, vooral als statement-stuk. Het gaat vaak samen met andere edelstenen en is bijna altijd in sterling zilver gezet. Enkele van de meest populaire turquoise sieraden zijn turquoise ringen en armbanden. Deze edelstenen worden echter vaak in oorbellen, kettinghangers en zelfs kleding en handtassen geplaatst.

Het is geen geheim waarom turkoois zoveel heilige energie bevat: het is een van de oudste edelstenen ter wereld! Voeg aan die intriges een samensmelting van levendige blauwgroen kleuren en patronen toe, en je hebt een van de meest unieke edelstenen die er zijn!
