What is the October birthstone? It's opal.%expanded-mobile%

At Monica Rich Kosann we have had a long love affair with opals. %expanded-desktop%

One of the first premium stone styles we ever made featured a slightly domed thin crystal opal stone on a locket that opened out sideways like a vintage compass or magnifier. It was also our very first foray into opal jewelry. Over the years, Australian opals have been a constant part of our high jewelry collection. We have used black opals (they are the the rarest), crystal opals, water opals (clearer stones with incredible fire) and Boulder opals. We love the latter as they can feel like one is peering into the depths of the ocean. For those celebrating a birthday, all of these styles have also been a collection of October birthstone jewelry of sorts, and have included October birthstone charms, rings and pendants. The most everyday opal birthstone necklace we have created can be found in our birthstone moon collection. Inspired by the idea that we are all “born under the same moon”, the opal birthstone designs in this collection are available in sterling silver and 18k gold. For an even more luxury take on this idea, you can find a variety of larger crescent moon necklaces with opals throughout our Sun, Moon and Stars collection. While visiting that collection, please browse our long layering chains that feature opal accents throughout as yet another take on versatile opal necklaces that can be worn a variety of ways. The signs of the zodiac that complement October birthstone jewelry are Libra and Scorpio. With that in mind, we offer a twist on Libra birthstone necklaces and Scorpio birthstone necklace with our zodiac collection. There you can find Libra and Scorpio necklaces available in 18k gold, sterling silver and colored enamel with gold vermeil.
