The May Birthstone

May's green emerald color is gorgeous! Emeralds are believed to be encouraging, calming and balancing because of their color. They are also thought to promote creativity and restore optimistic hope in dreams and visions. They are thought to bring good fortune and are often seen in the cash boxes of business owners who seek to prosper in their endeavors. For more on emeralds, check out Fire Mountain Gems. I created sets of emerald green jewelry. These make a great gift for that personal touch of birthstone jewelry, from a handmade jewelry shop, without the gemstone pricing.
