November jewelry ideas

Dainty pendant necklace

A small topaz solitaire or bezel pendant on a fine chain is the most popular November birthstone gift: easy to wear, easy to size, and usually under $60 in sterling silver or gold vermeil.

Birthstone ring

At 8 on the Mohs scale, topaz is tough enough for an everyday ring.

Stacking or charm bracelet

Add a topaz charm to a bracelet, or choose a chain bracelet with tiny set stones. It's a nice way to add a stone for each new family member.

Flower + stone pieces

Many makers combine the chrysanthemum with a topaz, like an engraved chrysanthemum disc with a stone charm. These make the most personal November gift.

Buying tips

Natural, lab-created or simulated: natural and lab-created stones are real gems. "Simulated" or "-ite" names usually mean glass or cubic zirconia.
Metal: look for solid 14k gold, sterling silver (925) or gold vermeil. Avoid unmarked "gold-tone" pieces for daily wear.
Care: Hard, but it can split along its cleavage if knocked. Clean with soapy water and avoid steam.
Alternatives: November also has citrine, which can be more affordable or offer a different color.

Questions, answered

What jewelry has the November birthstone?

November's birthstone is topaz. Popular pieces are pendant necklaces, stud earrings, rings and charm bracelets.

Is lab-created topaz real?

Lab-created gems have the same chemistry and look as mined ones and cost less. They're a great choice for birthstone jewelry. Just make sure the listing says "lab-created" rather than "simulated," which means glass or a different stone.

What metal goes with topaz?

Yellow gold warms up topaz, while white gold, platinum and sterling silver look crisp and modern. Match the metal to the jewelry the wearer already has.
