The Power of Pink Gemstones
Discover the world of pink gemstones. Maybe you've noticed – the color pink is having a moment. In restaurants, it seems, everyone's sipping on a glass of gorgeous rosé. This year's Met Gala saw many fashion-forward celebs in shades ranging from petal pink to fiery fuchsia. And, of course, hot-pink Barbiecore is everywhere!
While pink is definitely making a splash right now, its appeal is really quite timeless. Why not get in on the trend with some classic pieces of pink gemstone jewelry?
In Western cultures, the color pink represents love, romance, youth, and femininity. It balances the energy of red with the lightness of white. Soft shades of pink are used in interior décor to create a warm, soothing atmosphere. Bright, bold shades of pink are passionate, playful, and full of life.
Did you know that pink is the color most associated with sweetness? That's why so many bakeries use it for their boxes!
Pink is part of the palettes of Valentine's Day and Easter. And, of course, it's the shade beloved by so many little girls. But there are shades of pink for grownups, too.

FAQ
Opal, Pink Opal, Pink Sapphire, and Pink Tourmaline are all birthstones for the month of October. Choose a favorite, or wear them all!
You don't have to be an October baby to wear these beautiful gems. People wear gemstones for many reasons, not just because it’s the birthstone for the month they were born. You may wear a gem because you like its color, because its traditional meaning speaks to you, or because it reminds you of someone you love. Jewelry is extremely personal and you should feel free to wear any gemstone you like.
Your Rose Quartz, Pink Tourmaline, and Pink Sapphire jewelry will stay looking great with an occasional cleaning. Use a non-abrasive jewelry cleaner or mild, dye-free dish soap and water. Let the jewelry soak in a small bowl for a few minutes, then brush gently with a soft toothbrush. Rinse it completely and blot dry with a chamois cloth. Keep it away from harsh chemicals like bleach and strong household cleaners.
Pink Opal jewelry needs a bit more TLC than most gemstones. Because of its high water content, Pink Opal can absorb chemicals such as lotions, creams, and perfumes. Remove your jewelry before applying anything that may be absorbed. Keep it away from extreme heat and be sure not to strike it against hard surfaces. Clean occasionally with warm water, and blot dry with a chamois cloth. Never clean Pink Opal jewelry in an ultrasonic cleaner.
