THE SEPTEMBER GUIDE
A closer look, when you need it.
How to choose a September birthstone necklace
Start with the gemstone, size and chain.
For a September birthday, start with sapphire, then choose a design the recipient will enjoy wearing. Our Nocturne Crest Blue Sapphire Pendant pairs blue sapphire with white zircon in 14K gold-plated 925 sterling silver. Its listed pendant dimension is 13 mm, a useful starting point for someone who prefers a small pendant.
Compare the pendant and chain with a necklace they already wear. Check the full materials list, whether the sapphire is natural or laboratory-grown, and any treatments. Ask us when a detail is unclear. Our size guide helps you compare necklace lengths.
Sapphire vs lapis lazuli
A September birthstone and a blue-inspired alternative.
Sapphire is September’s birthstone. Lapis lazuli is a different material, included here for its deep blue appearance. Choose sapphire for the birthstone connection, or lapis if the wearer prefers its look and reversible design.
| Detail | Sapphire | Lapis lazuli |
|---|---|---|
| Birthday connection | September birthstone. | September-inspired blue gift; a different gem material. |
| Look here | Blue sapphire with white-zircon accents. | Deep blue lapis paired with labradorite in reversible pendants. |
| Mohs hardness | 9; resistant to scratching. | 5–6; handle more gently. |
| Choose for | A small pendant with the September birthstone. | Someone who likes two different looks in one pendant. |
Gemstone references: GIA September birthstone and GIA lapis care. Hardness measures scratch resistance, not the durability of every part of a finished piece.
September birthstone gift ideas
Match their style and count the whole gift cost.
Choose Nocturne Crest for a small sapphire pendant. For a blue-inspired gift, the Moonveil Lapis Lazuli Pendant has a listed dimension of 15.36 mm; the Moonveil Lotus Pendant is 20.48 mm. Both reverse to labradorite.
Budget for the pendant and any chain together. Check current availability, delivery estimates and the return conditions before ordering for a birthday. A short note can explain why you chose that stone or design.
How to care for sapphire and lapis jewelry
Care for the stone and the gold-plated setting.
Sapphire is a hard gemstone, but its setting and treatments still matter. For these gold-plated silver pendants, follow the product instructions: keep them away from water, perfume, lotions and household chemicals; wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store separately.
Avoid steam, ultrasonic cleaning and soaking when the treatment history or construction is unclear. Lapis needs gentler handling than sapphire. Read our jewelry care guide or ask us about the exact piece. Stone-specific guidance: GIA sapphire care.
September birthstone questions
What is the September birthstone?
Sapphire. Blue is its best-known color, but sapphires also occur in other colors. Our September birthstone guide covers their history and symbolism.
Is lapis lazuli the same as sapphire?
No. The Moonveil pieces contain lapis lazuli and labradorite. They are blue-inspired gifts; choose the sapphire-labeled pendant if you specifically want September’s birthstone.
Do these pendants come with a chain?
The default option is pendant only. You can choose an optional chain on the product page; the pendant and chain appear as separate items in your bag. Check the combined total before checkout.
Can I wear a sapphire pendant every day?
Sapphire’s hardness makes it suitable for regular wear. Protect the whole pendant from knocks, water and chemicals, and follow its product-specific care instructions, including those for the gold-plated finish.
