Over The Rainbow

By The Watches of Switzerland Group 3 Minute Read

You can add a beautiful pop of colour to every day with coloured gemstones. Here we look at a selection of gorgeous pieces featuring blue- and green-toned stones, all of which are available at Goldsmiths.

There are all sort of reasons why you might be attracted to coloured gemstones. Perhaps you want to wear jewel tones that match the kinds of colours you like to wear. Perhaps you like wearing your birthstone, or you’re simply drawn to a certain hue. Whatever the reason, we have a huge selection of jewellery boasting an entire rainbow of different coloured stones, so you’re sure to find something you like.

Here, we’ve picked some of our favourite blue- and green-toned jewels. Well-known for their soothing qualities, blue and green gems are said to bring an inner calm to the wearer, and therefore lend themselves to all sorts of situations.

You might find the calming effect of these gems particularly useful when you’re about to walk down the aisle – and the unique tones of aquamarine, sapphire or topaz would be perfect for your big day. Not only does sparkling azure really pop next to a white gown, but it also fulfils the ‘something blue’ tradition. Our 9-carat white-gold aquamarine and diamond ring would be the ideal accompaniment to an ‘I do’, especially when paired with the matching diamond drop earrings.

For a slightly more subtle look, our aquamarine topaz and diamond ring and matching pendant both display an emerald-cut gemstone framed by a halo of diamonds, and provide flashes of differing oceanic tones as they catch the light.

A Sea of Green

A colour that has made waves everywhere from interior design to fashion is a light wash of seafoam green, and we have plenty of pieces to complement this trend. Three of our favourites are from Kiki McDonough’s collection, and each boasts a breathtaking cushion-cut green amethyst.

Set against gold, the necklace features a diamond loop to enhance the calming tone of the centre stone. On the matching earrings, meanwhile, the exquisite green amethyst cushion drop can be detached, allowing the diamond hoops to be worn on their own if so desired. Completing this trio, the 18-carat gold ring is encrusted with sparkling diamonds surrounding the centrepiece – a stunning green amethyst that sits within tapered shoulders to ensure a comfortable fit.
