Lets start a thread to celebrate the birthstones for October i.e Opals and Tourmalines. Both stones are not as commonly used as some other ones in royal/noble jewels but there are some good examples out there.

Let me start off with Crown Princess Mary's Opal brooch/ring/necklace that was an official present from South Australia to mark the birth of her first born Prince Christian (an October baby)!!
