Birthstone Jewelry - July & August
The rubies featured in earrings make them a great choice for a July birthstone gift. Rubies are associated with creativity, loyalty, honor, and compassion. Ruby was considered the stone of love, energy, passion, power, and a zest for life for thousands of years.

An alternate birthstone for August, Spinel promotes physical vitality, refills energy, and eases exhaustion. It's a soothing stone that calms and relieves stress, anxiety, PTSD, and depression and supports mental rejuvenation.

What is a Leverback? Drop, Hoop and Dangle earrings are often made with a leverback closure. Leverback earrings hook through a piercing and fasten by pushing the lever at the base of the earring closed. The lever moves on a hinge and is easy to open and shut, but it stays securely fastened while worn.
