WHAT ANNIVERSARY
ARE YOU CELEBRATING?
Did you know there are traditional gemstones associated with
many of the wedding anniversaries? There are more in-between
some of these years, but we picked most of the classics for reference.
1ST – GOLD: What a more fitting way to
commemorate the first year of marriage.
e warm, shimmery, and precious metal that is gold,
is malleable and timeless, just as your love for one
another. Is also the 50th anniversary.
6TH – AMETHYST: A regal
purple color, this February
birthstone also is a great gift for
your 6th anniversary.
8TH – TOURMALINE:
Appearing in more shades than
any other gemstone, tourmaline
is often associated with calm,
sympathy and understanding and
is a great 8th anniversary gift!
10TH – DIAMOND:
After all, a "diamond is
forever," the most popular
gemstone and renowned
for its strength and sparkle.
Diamonds are perfect for a
decade of marriage.
3RD – PEARL: An elegant
gemstone, often worn on
weddings to represent purity.
It is the only gemstone
produced organically!
