Gemstone meanings invite a world of exploration that need not be relegated to just a rock in your pocket. I can think of no better way to employ the healing properties of gemstones than to wear a beautifully designed necklace that you feel fantastic in.

The fascination with gemstone meanings has been around for thousands of years and healing gemstones have been much sought after for for both spiritual and physical healing.

Healing gemstones were used by ancient civilizations to heal disease, for protection and as talismans to bring the wearer positive vibrational energy.

At Circa 1890 we design with beautiful stones from around the world. We are passionate about beauty, quality and creating a way of life that is uplifting to the soul.

Over time we will be adding rich gemstone creations that will be accompanied by informative descriptions and full gemstone meanings. Don't be surprised to find that you are energetically drawn to exactly the stone that is in harmony with what you need.
