Wedding Anniversary Gemstones

Gemstone Jewelry holds a very special place when it comes to Wedding Anniversary gifts. Giving gemstones as gifts have been in existence since medieval times. Gems are suggested depending on their property and specialty the occasion carries. Emily Post , the best selling author of several books on etiquette, was the first author to publish a list suggesting wedding anniversary gems for important years in the year 1922.
