for June babies

June babies probably have the most hypnotic of birthstones out there, as well as the most to choose from, from Alexandrite to Moonstone to Pearl!  Alexandrite, an extremely rare and valuable stone, can shift from green or bluish-green in daylight, and turns a soft shade of red, purplish-red or raspberry red in incandescent light.  The ring featured above features a purple to teal green color change!
                          
Moonstone has its play of light called adularescence, shimmering pale blue on an almost translucent background.  This antique ring, dubbed the Man in the Moon, plays on this shimmer beautifully.

                         
And last, but not least, the pearl, who boosts its own iridescent qualities.  The shimmer of the pearl in this antique ring certainly doesn't take second stage to the rose cut diamonds in this setting!
