Some popular ones are: Emerald, Peridot, Green Sapphire, Green Tourmaline, Tsavorite Garnet, Jade, and Chrysoprase. Each variety offers unique shades, durability, and price points, allowing buyers to choose according to their preferences and budget.
Which green gem is best for everyday jewelry?
For daily wear, durable options such as Green Sapphire, Tourmaline, or Tsavorite Garnet are recommended. Emeralds, while highly valued, are softer and may require more care when worn regularly.
How do I choose the right shade of green?
Gemstones in green color range from light mint tones to deep forest hues. When selecting, consider both personal preference and how the color complements your skin tone or jewelry design. Deeper greens like emeralds offer classic elegance, while lighter shades like peridot create a fresh, vibrant look.
Do green gemstones have symbolic meanings?
Yes. Across cultures, they were associated with renewal, growth, prosperity, and balance. Many people choose them for their symbolic connection to nature and harmony, making them meaningful in both jewelry and spiritual practices.
Can I request certification for my green gem?
Yes, we provide third-party certification from respected gemological laboratories like ICA GemLab, AIG GemLab, and BGL Lab.

I was looking for a small gift for a friend- the process is the same as every other time and was very simple, and she even got her gift early! On the downside, there's no way to easily keep track of multiple Shipping Addresses, so if I want to send a gift to Friend A and to Friend B, I have to overwrite everything and it's a fair bit clunky in that regard.

Would have bought an indigo and selenite, but neither listed. But, you do offer quite a large assortment otherwise.

I really liked the email, and the link that help return me to the site. I didnt have access to my card info while checking out and I had to put my phone away so I lost the tab. Fortunately, since I did give an email- they sent me a link that brought me back to where I was. Greatly appreciated

First time using this website. It was both exciting finding things in my price range and things Iam gonna save up for and use in other pieces. I love that the picture of the gem is the exact gem I'll be buying. I haven't tested the gems yes but they said they sold me 100% natural gems.

I found what I was looking for...had to look up millimeters to inches. It would be nice to see something, like a quarter, in the pix to show relative size. I plan on buy loose gemstones for every month in the calendar
