Gemstones have been a part of our lives reaching back into the ancient world as our ancient ancestors recognized the benefits of gems & minerals. They wanted to imbue and honor the gems by giving their names to their most precious asset, their children.
Your most beautiful child will be named after the most beautiful creations of Mother Earth, bringing the love of Earth full-circle between the most compelling, motherly forces in nature.
Choosing a name for your child is a special, sacred event. You should choose a name that imbues your child with the characteristics that you wish to see them embody in their life's journey. Naming a child is an honor that is spoken & given from the heart, and speaks of the hopes you have for them in their lifetime, and honors your ideals & beliefs.
Whether it's a first name, middle name, or even third name for your child, you can bestow upon them your love of Mother Earth's treasures.
