A softer interpretation of the traditional birthstone jewelry, we are so excited to offer this beautiful and ethically sourced adornment that is just as unique as you! Locally crafted and exclusively available at District Mineral.
We are excited to introduce you to our December birthstone, a milky teal Tyrone Turquoise from New Mexico! This prized and thoughtfully sourced stone is set in rose goldfill on an 18’’ chain. Associated with silver and copper mining in the mountains of New Mexico (and of course, Native American cultural practices long before commercial mining began), Tyrone Turquoise has long been revered for its intense yet soft blue hues and its delightful healing properties - including peace, calm and aiding in clear and thoughtful communication between people. The high quality stones are considered collectible, as no turquoise has been produced from this mine since the 80s. Whether wearing this stone as a celebration of your birth month or simply because you feel drawn to its soothing energy, it will be a true joy to wear.
About District Mineral’s Birthstone Collection
We are beyond elated to announce our first private jewelry collection – the District Mineral Birthstone Collection. This exciting new capsule is a creative reimagining of the quintessential jewelry piece: the birthstone necklace.
Focusing on ethically sourced, American mined, and vintage stones, we place an emphasis on high quality and rare stones that make each necklace one of a kind. In addition to traditional or primary birthstones, we delighted in exploring the secondary or alternative birthstones, which allowed us to breathe fresh life into this classic jewelry staple.
We sought some of the most unique and unexpected stones, from milky teal Arizona turquoise to shimmering Australian opal to minty vintage emeralds. Our stones shy away from the norms of overly saturated and often synthetic gems in favor of delicate, nuanced, and 100% natural ones that speak to the uniqueness of crystals, and the uniqueness of you.
Each necklace is handcrafted locally and set on a delicate 18” rose goldfill chain and can be special ordered in solid gold by request. Please email hello@districtmineral.com for a quote. We hope you love this collection just as much as we do, and we look forward to helping you explore the magic and fun of birthstones!
