Gemstones for Autumn or Fall - choosing the right gemstone for each season

Carnelian

The burnt orange to amber colors mean that this historic gemstone is a perfect match to the fall season plus carnelian has been considered a lucky stone since the time of the Ancient Egyptians.

Andalusite

Earthy tones of brown, green and amber are the base colors of this interesting gemstone but it is the flashes of pink, orange and red that really set Andalusite apart.

Fire Opal

This member of the Opal family is unlike its cousins as it rarely shows the color play that Opals are famous for but the deep, intense and ‘fiery’ oranges and reds will really catch the eye.

Hessonite Garnet

Honey, cinnamon, burnt orange, no we are not in a bakery but Hessonite Garnets do look delicious and are so evocative of Autumn.

Spessartite Garnet

Fiery orange and mandarin colors mark out this Garnet specimen that comes in a wide variety of shapes and sizes both faceted and cabochon cut.

Rhodolite Garnet

The name suggests rose-colored and much like the flower, this gemstone comes in gorgeous reds, violets, purples and every tone in between.

The variety of sizes and cuts for all these garnets make them perfect for all types of high quality jewelry items.

Tourmaline

Tourmalines are probably the most colorful variety of gemstones available and there will always be one that you will love. For this time of year the browns, oranges, golds and reds are ideal.

Sapphire

Sapphire is the September birthstone and comes in a number of colors that will match the early fall colors delightfully. Its spiritual strength and prestige make it a wonderful autumn gemstone.

Citrine

Not only does citrine come in lovely autumnal yellow and orange colors but spiritually it is comforting and energizing which can be a great benefit as the days grow shorter and darker.

Ametrine

Ametrine is a combination of citrine and amethyst so gains spiritual strength from both of these powerful crystals. It inspires creativity and prevents depression which is very useful as the days draw in.
