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.

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

I have been buying gems for several years off and on and love their selection and great low prices. I started out wanting to get an example of each type of gem but after looking at all the types of gems and reading about them I realize it is almost impossible for me to do. It took me years just to read about them all. Gem Select is the best gem site you can find. For information or to buy. Steve M.
