			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Diamonds are always a popular choice when it comes to jewelry, but gold, silver and other gemstones on their own can be just as popular. Did you that each month has a gemstone dedicated to it and each gemstone has its own special symbolic meaning? If you really want to blow him or her away, you can select a particular gemstone because of it&#8217;s the significance it has with a particular month or because of its own special meaning. There are twelve months in the year, so there are twelve gemstones with their own significant meaning. January&#8217;s gemstone is a garnet and it represents faith and stability. February&#8217;s gemstone is amethyst and it represents sincerity and happiness. March&#8217;s gemstone is aquamarine and represents hope and bravery. April&#8217;s gemstone is a diamond, which represents joy and innocence. May&#8217;s gemstone is an emerald and represents peace and tranquility. June&#8217;s gemstone is a pearl, which represents wisdom and pureness. July&#8217;s gemstone is a ruby and it represents passion and nobility. August&#8217;s gemstone is sardonyx and it stands for power and joy. September&#8217;s gemstone is a sapphire, which represents honesty and hope. October&#8217;s gemstone is an opal and stands for confidence and sweet love. November&#8217;s gemstone is topaz and it stands for friendship and faithfulness. December&#8217;s gemstone is turquoise, which stands for understanding and success.</p>
<p>Sometimes the delivery of the jewelry is almost as important as the selection of the right piece. There are movies and personal accounts of how individuals have delivered a special trinket to their loved ones. One of the most popular delivery methods seems to be through food! People either place a ring or other <a href="http://www.jewelerlocal.com/" target="_blank"><strong>jewelry piece</strong></a> in champagne or other clear beverage or they bake the jewelry into a special treat like a pie or cake. What you don&#8217;t hear about in these stories is that you have to be careful of a few things. First of all, make sure your loved one doesn&#8217;t choke on their gift! Secondly, check with your jeweler before placing any type of jewelry in food. </p>
