Peridot
Pretty peridot! This gemstone has been cherished for centuries and is even referred to as “the gem of the sun.” With its unique yellow-green hues, peridot comes from the olivine mineral family, with iron giving it its signature glow. Wondering what the most sought-after shade is? Bright lime greens and subdued olive greens are the most coveted! Not only does peridot symbolize positivity and comfort, but its vibrant energy is also said to uplift those around you. A total win-win! Want to feel these good vibes? We have some pretty pieces here at the shop that can be customized to have a peridot stone!
Tourmaline
Say hello to tourmaline, the ultimate feel-good gem! With one of the widest color ranges in the gemstone world, tourmalines vary in intensity and tone - making each stone truly unique! Within the five main species (uvite, elbaite, dravite, liddicoatite, and schorl), you’ll find some dazzling shades of green. This “happiness stone” is known for bringing good vibes, balance, and emotional well-being. Who wouldn’t want that in their jewelry collection?
Garnet
Last but certainly not least, let’s talk garnet! While most people associate garnet with deep red hues, this January birthstone also comes in stunning shades of green. Symbolizing serenity and peace, green garnets are also known for their ability to ward off negative energy. If you’re looking for a gemstone that radiates calm and harmony, garnet is the way to go!
