September?s birthstone is Sapphire!
SAPPHIRE:?Sapphire is known as the ?stone of wisdom? in many religions and cultures. In 1912 it officially became the birthstone for September. With a 9 on the Mohs scale it is the second hardest mineral, second only to diamonds. It?s best to view Sapphire?s color in natural light, opposed to artificial light which may make the stone appear darker and less attractive.
