The Origin Of Birthstones

Birthstones appear to have a biblical source, tracking back to the Biblical book of Exodus and specifically to the breastplate of the high priest Aaron. The breastplate was inlaid with 12 gemstones or crystals that represented the twelve tribes of Israel at the time. Since this time, they have evolved into the system we know today. It came about in the 18th century in Poland when Jewish gem traders marketed specific gemstones based on a person’s birth month. In 1912 the National Association of Jewellers solidified the list in the United States. Since then the twelve birthstones have basically remained the same.
