Happy Birthday to those who celebrate a birthday in October.
October birthstones are Opal and Pink Tourmaline.
Opal is the national gem of Australia and comes with many hues.
Did you know tourmaline’s name comes from the Sinhalese word toromalli, which means “mixed gems"? Tourmaline comes in more color combinations than many other gemstone varieties found in nature. Photo: Robert Weldon/GIA, Dr. Eduard J. Gübelin Collection
