birthstones

im not too sure which wise wizard came up with the idea of birthstones...theyre a pretty odd invention that seem to have jumped straight out of the mind of someone like tolkien or mr pullman.
i had to research them for work the other week and found out all sorts of interesting weird things. this was for march.

'March Birthstone - Properties of the Aquamarine
For those who were born in the month of March the Aquamarine is the traditional birthstone. properties with which the Aquamarine is associated - faithfulness, courage and friendship. The Traditional Metaphysical Properties for the March Birthstone Aquamarine are awareness, quick response and easing communication problems.
apparently aquamarines can also help with throat problems....not sure how exactly...perhaps like a cough sweet.

anyways heres some pictures of a bracelet i designed at work after my research.modelled by the loverly lady orch.
i do very much like these aquamarines.
