We have a gorgeous selection of opal and tourmaline to represent the official October birthstones. Beautiful, iridescent opal and vibrant, stunning tourmaline highlight the natural gemstones that make this month so special. Read on to find out more and shop all our favorite birthstone gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Opal<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Formed from silica and water, gorgeous opal is found in the cracks and crevices of rock deposits. It\u2019s amorphous, which means it doesn\u2019t have a defined structure \u2014 meaning that it takes on many colors and qualities. This makes each opal piece unique and special to the wearer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spiritual meaning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s said that opal can help spark creativity in its wearers, making it the perfect stone for lovers of art and culture. It is also a symbol of hope, purity, and truth in some European cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Did you know?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With 95% of the world\u2019s precious opals coming from Australia, opal is actually the national gemstone of the country. Indigenous Australian myths link the creation of opal to rainbows because of its colorful appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Opal gifts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/OctoberBirthstone_Blog-41097961.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7230 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/OctoberBirthstone_Blog-41097961.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/OctoberBirthstone_Blog-41097961-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/OctoberBirthstone_Blog-41097961-576x384.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/theloupe\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/OctoberBirthstone_Blog-41097961-380x253.jpg 380w\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/400;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shaneco.com\/gemstone-jewelry\/gemstone-necklaces\/celia-opal-pendant-in-14k-rose-gold-18-in\/p\/41097961\">Celia Opal Pendant<\/a> is the perfect way to celebrate an October birthday!

Tourmaline is made up of a variety of mineral elements, making it especially unique because of its ability to come in a wide variety of colors. The composition of tourmaline directly affects its physical appearance \u2014 more or less inclusion of certain minerals make it appear wildly different to the naked eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Spiritual meaning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tourmaline is believed to promote inspiration and happiness, as well as build self-confidence among its wearers, making it a great gemstone to wear on a daily basis! It\u2019s known as a protective stone, keeping its wearers safe from harmful energy and bringing forth positive vibes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Did you know?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Up until the 1800s, tourmaline was often mistaken for other stones because of its wide variety of colors. The Spanish explorer who first discovered tourmaline even actually assumed it was an emerald!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tourmaline gifts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We carry a number of beautiful and unique tourmaline jewelry gifts for October babies!
