New birthstone guide
03 March 2008
Ernest Jones has launched a new birthstone guide, using the most common month and gem relation — all you need to know about birthstones and an easy navigational calendar to select the right gem for the person you're buying for or to indulge in some self-purchasing.
With a detailed overview, quirky detail and clear navigation for customers, it gives a comprehensive guide to all that is birthstones. Each month is clearly labelled and the related gem is presented on the page. Customers can click on each month and be taken to a page with rich information about the birthstone, what the gem means and its historical and spiritual background. There are interesting facts and stories associated with the birthstones. The unique element of a birthstone is not only what it looks like, but the meaning behind it.
Ernest Jones has a wide range of birthstone jewellery — pendants, rings, earrings and even brooches. Birthstones have the diversity to suit everyone's style.
From January to December, no one misses out. The birthstone guide at Ernest Jones gives insightful detail and adds an element of fun. Birthstones can be given as gifts for any occasion — weddings, anniversaries, Christmas, Valentine's Day, as well as birthdays. Giving a birthstone gift shows attention to detail and is a sure fire way to raise a smile for the person receiving the gift.
