Sterling silver, whilst stunning, is prone to minor scuffs and will tarnish so requires some care to maintain its beauty.

Birthstones hold a special significance and make meaningful gifts for all occasions. You can choose a tourmaline necklace to honour your loved one’s birth month, combine multiple birthstones to represent your family’s unique bond, or choose a gemstone that aligns with a significant birthday or anniversary.

Tourmaline is a birthstone for October born-babes, an alternative to opal. This tourmaline necklace beautifully represents a loved one in anyone’s life who has close ones with an October birthday. This would make a lovely “push present” for a new parent with an October baby. Gifting someone their birthstone is said to bring the wearer good luck and is a powerful way for them to represent themselves, acting as a little bit of daily self-love.

Traditionally associated with the 8th wedding anniversary, tourmaline also serves as a wonderful alternative for 38 year milestones. Whether you’re commemorating a romantic relationship, friendship, or any other special date, this tourmaline necklace is a timeless expression of love and appreciation. It’s also a perfect birthday present for a soon-to-be 38 year-old loved one.
