The History of Birthstones
The concept of birthstones can be traced back to ancient civilizations. The first known mention of birthstones can be found in the Bible in the book of Exodus, where the breastplate of Aaron, the high priest of the Israelites, was adorned with twelve gemstones representing the twelve tribes of Israel.
In ancient times, birthstones were believed to possess magical powers and were often worn as talismans or amulets. The idea of wearing a specific gemstone associated with your birth month gained popularity during the 18th century in Poland. It was believed that each gemstone had unique properties and wearing the corresponding birthstone during its assigned month would enhance its powers.
