Gemstones for Winter - choosing the right gemstone for each season

Winter Gemstones
Gemstones for the Winter Season

Our series of seasonal gemstones comes to an end with Winter.

As the winter season settles in, there’s something magical about the cold, crisp air and the shimmering beauty of winter gemstones. Whether you're looking for a unique piece of jewelry to complement your winter wardrobe or seeking out the perfect gemstone for a winter birthday or special occasion, the world of winter gemstones offers a stunning array of colors and properties.

From the deep blues and purples of December's birthstones to the icy whites and cool tones that evoke the essence of winter, gemstones have long been treasured for their beauty and significance.

The team here at GemSelect has got together to come up with the perfect gemstones for winter to get you through the long cold months and the first on our list of cold weather stones should come as no surprise.

Diamond

Diamonds are not sometimes called ice just because of their crystal clear appearance, they also conduct heat exceptionally well so if you hold or touch a nice big diamond it will feel icy cold! There is no better gemstone to reflect the winter months.

There are a couple of gemstones which share the diamond’s clear looks but not its price tag.

Quartz

White or clear quartz captures the imagination as an ideal gemstone for the winter months, as a piece of jewelry resembling ice cut from a frozen stream.

Topaz

Topaz is a historic and much loved gemstone which comes in variety of colors but two make it a perfect winter crystal. The clear white topaz has a lovely sparkle and can be made into all types of jewelry while the brilliant blue topaz conjures up images of wintry scenes.

A gorgeous blue to violet gemstone only found in the mountains of Tanzania. A recent discovery in the world of gemstones – discovered just over fifty years ago – it has become tremendously popular very quickly.

Lapis Lazuli

This gemstone not only looks like a winter sky at night – clear deep blue with a sprinkling of stars – but is a very protective stone which boosts the immune system which is especially vulnerable in winter.
