About Rare Gemstone Jewelry
A gemstone’s color may catch your attention first, but the finished design helps you decide whether it belongs in your jewelry collection. Explore pieces with a prominent colored center, decorative metalwork, or a repeated pattern of stones to find something that suits the way you like to wear jewelry.
Choose a Color You Enjoy Wearing
Find all types of gemstones including purple amethyst, pink tourmaline, blue topaz, green peridot, and others. For pink options, there is rose quartz. Aquamarine is an attractive blue gemstone.
Gemstones come in a variety of shades and can compliment your wardrobe. A subtly colored gemstone can be worn with most outfits and accessories, while a boldly colored gemstone can provide a focal point to an outfit. Make sure you are comparing the overall design, including the setting and surrounding stones, rather than just the center stone.
For an interesting color changing effect, consider Alexandrite. If you want an alexandrite for its color changing ability, request to see the stone in different types of lighting, including the lighting it was checked against, and confirm its origin before purchasing.
Botanical Details and Geometric Shapes
Leaf inspired rings, accent stone designs, and other styles give each gemstone a different frame. The hexagon amethyst ring combines an angular purple center with leaf motifs and matching gemstone accents. A round rose quartz leaf-style ring offers a softer interpretation of the botanical design.
Explore cushion, pear, round, emerald cut, and other available shapes according to the outline you prefer. Rounded corners, pointed ends, and straight edges can change the appearance of a ring even when its color remains similar.
The emerald-cut peridot ring, for example, places a rectangular green gemstone beside colorless accents. Here, “emerald cut” describes the cutting style; peridot is the gemstone.
Matching Color or Contrasting Sparkle
The supporting stones help distinguish one design from another. Matching amethyst accents extend purple beyond the center, while moissanite adds contrasting sparkle around green peridot.
The cushion alexandrite accent ring pairs a lab grown gemstone center with lab grown diamond details. This gives shoppers a choice between a design that carries color throughout and one that frames the colored stone with brighter accents.
Check the materials listed for both the center and supporting stones. Similar-looking pieces may use different combinations, which matters when comparing designs or choosing coordinating jewelry.
Gemstone Bands for Stacking and Personal Gifts
A gemstone band consists of multiple stones as opposed to a single larger stone. For a unique look or to add a pop of color to your ring stack, consider amethyst, topaz, citrine, or any other gemstone bands.
When stacking, compare the width of the band to the others and ensure the setting height of the stones is of comparable size to the others. Also take into consideration how far the stones extend around the band. A half eternity design leaves the other side of the band free of stones while a full eternity design extends the stones around the band.
Birthstones are a traditional way to add a personal touch to a gift, but the color of the stone can also represent the giver’s thoughtfulness. Consider if the person you’re giving the gift to usually wears decorative rings or prefer band rings that can be stacked.
