October birthdays have twice the color to celebrate.
Opal and tourmaline are both recognized as October birthstones, offering two beautifully different ways to mark the month. Traditional opal is treasured for its one-of-a-kind play of color, with flashes of rainbow hues that seem to shift and dance with the light. No two opals are exactly alike, making each piece as individual as the person wearing it.
Tourmaline offers an entirely different kind of beauty. Long associated with October in its beloved pink variety, tourmaline is now celebrated across its remarkable spectrum of colors, from soft blush and vivid raspberry to rich greens, ocean blues, watermelon combinations, and more. Its transparency and ability to be beautifully faceted give tourmaline the brilliance and sparkle many people associate with classic-colored gemstones.
Whether you’re drawn to the luminous, ever-changing character of opal or the vibrant color and brilliance of tourmaline, October offers one of the most diverse birthstone palettes of the year.
Explore Brinker's Jewelers' collection of opal and tourmaline rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets to find an October birthstone that feels uniquely yours.
Each opal has its own natural pattern and play of color. Tourmaline occurs naturally in an extraordinary range of colors, making every selection wonderfully personal.
