Is the December birthstone called by different names?
Tanzanite is the name of the gemstone that is called the December birthstone.
Before I knew about Tanzanite, I thought the Blue Topaz was considered the birthstone for December. In some of my research, I also discovered that the Blue Aquamarine is referenced when searching for the birthstone for December. Aquamarine is the March birthstone.
One thing for sure is that the December birthstone is very pretty, but what is the color? One thing that seems to be somewhat common is that people think the color for the December birthstone is very pretty and the color is blue.
Tanzanite was named by Tiffany and Co for the country, Tanzania, in which it was discovered in 1967. It is a rare gem found only in the Mount Kilimanjaro foothills. Depending on its crystal orientation, it may appear alternately sapphire blue, violet, and burgundy. Incandescent lighting brings out the violet hues, while the blues are more evident in fluorescent lighting. In its rough state, it is a reddish brown color. To bring out the blue violet of the stone, it requires artificial heat treatment to 600 degrees C in a gemological oven.
Will people know the difference between Tanzanite dangle earrings, Blue Aquamarine dangle earrings, or blue Topaz dangling earrings, if you don't tell them? One thing that seems to be somewhat common is that people perceive the December birthstone to be blue. The amazing thing about all of these gemstones is all of them come in a very pretty blue, and all can be found with complimentary coordinates, such as necklaces, bracelets, pins, etc.
One thing for sure, when you search for birthstone earrings for a December birthday, you owe it to yourself to do the research and satisfy your personal findings. Armed with the proper information, you can check out what is available and find something that says take me home.
As always, share your thoughts.

Dangling Earrings: Bridal Earrings Drop for Bridal Jewelry
Dangling Earrings: Bridal Earrings Drop for Bridal Jewelry
June is the month when we think of brides and weddings. Bridal jewelry is an important part of a bride's attire.
Popular styles of bridal earrings are drop, dangle, dangling, and chandelier, just to name a few. Think about the style of your dress. A dress with a low-cut neckline might require a longer necklace. That would help determine the earrings that go with it. It is possible to purchase sets in which you have a matching necklace to go with your bridal earrings.
Think about the shape of your face. If you have a round face, long dangling earrings will make your face look longer. If you have a long face, selecting long dangling earrings may make your face look even longer.
As seen in photos of the Royal Wedding, Kate Middleton chose dangling earrings for her bridal jewelry. Dangling earrings for women come in a variety of styles and colors. She chose a style that complimented her as well as her attire.
In selecting bridal earrings drop, choose a style that makes you feel like a princess. Your bridal jewelry should compliment you as well as your outfit. Select dangling earrings for women in your wedding party that will compliment them, but not outshine what you are wearing.
Your wedding day is one of the most important days in your life and should be a day you will always remember.

Dangling Earrings: Earrings for Camping
Dangling Earrings: Earrings for Camping
Earrings accent any outfit and there are plenty to choose from when you go camping.
Camping earrings might say "camping" on them. Butterfly or dragonfly earrings are also fun to wear when camping. Add camping trailer, canteen, sign, lantern earrings or any other item you might see while camping to your duffel bag, even pewter earrings.
Since I always have bluejeans along, I like to include a pair of blue dangle earrings in my travel bag.
You guessed it! A color-coordinated pair to go with each color of shorts goes too -- that means a pair of red dangle earrings, yellow dangle earrings, and any color that coordinates well with the color of my shorts, jacket, etc.
