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 site with every type of gem I could want for setting in luxury blades and assumed I would need to look outside the US, but GemSelect made it easy to get everything I wanted without leaving the house! Wide enough selection that I do not feel the need to look elsewhere and pricing the same.

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.

I love Gem Select! When you order what you see is what you get. As soon as you make payment that particular gem is taken off the photo album. That way the one you select is a one of that kind.
