The Gilded, Glittering World Of Gemstone Jewellery
If you've ever held a piece of gemstone jewellery and felt something beyond thinking that the piece looks beautiful, you’re not alone. There is something about gemstones that connects with people differently, as compared to regular gold or silver jewellery. Sometimes, it’s the colour, sometimes, the meaning the stone holds and at times, it’s just the feel!
The fact is that a gemstone is not perfect, but it is natural. It is formed over time and quite often it carries marks and quirks from its journey, and that’s exactly what makes it interesting. A good gemstone has character – it has depth in terms of colour, personality and of course, beauty. But what makes a gemstone truly valuable is not the grade or the certificate; it is the feeling you get when you wear it.
It’s no surprise that gemstone jewellery is so highly prized and so intensely loved!
The Incredible World Of Loose Gemstones
For a lot of people, gemstones are just coloured pieces used in jewellery; but those in the know will know how valuable and meaningful these can be. Each stone has a story behind it, and there is a reason why it is chosen – here is a sneak peek into some of the most popular gemstones:
-
Emerald - The emerald is perfect for someone wanting to move into clarity and self-awareness. This deep green stone is a symbol of growth and calm confidence.
-
Ruby – To bring to life passion, courage and unapologetic self-expression, you will want the ruby. The bold, fiery and full of emotion redness of this stone, stands radiant.
-
Sapphire - Quietly powerful, sapphire carries the energy of wisdom, loyalty and inner steadiness for someone who values depth over noise.
-
Amethyst - A calm, serene shade of purple, people often choose amethyst when they want balance, clarity or a sense of inner stillness.
-
Moonstone - Soft, dreamy, mysterious, almost poetic, the moonstone has a glow that catches light gently, never aggressively.
-
Turquoise – The turquoise is known to draw people who are exactly like the traits of the stone – bold and spirited.
-
Garnet – Rich, deep red, the garnet is known to offer a sense of grounding. This stone is supposed to bring a feeling of strong, steady and dependable.
-
Rose quartz – The soft pink warmth has this inherent sense of softness, which is probably why, a lot of people choose rose quartz gemstone rings for self-love and healing.
Silver Gemstone Bracelets, Rings, Pendants And More – All At Unniyarcha
If you are someone who knows a little something about jewellery, you would know that some stones look good in gold, while others in rose gold. However, pretty much every stone looks good in silver because this metal has character; it feels modern yet maintains a timeless charm. But what makes silver gemstone earrings or bracelets so much more special is that silver doesn’t overshadow the stone; rather, it frames it.
Silver pairs well with everyday life - office clothes, casual outfits, traditional wear and even travel wardrobes. So, you really don’t need a special occasion to wear it. And while gold has a beautiful presence, silver makes jewellery a lot more everyday!
When you come to shop at Unniyarcha, you will be able to pick and choose from such a huge collection of gemstone jewellery pieces:
-
Bangles and bracelets
-
Necklaces
-
Rings
-
Anklets
-
Earrings
-
Nose pins
Pick silver gemstone jewellery and you will have chosen something that feels lived-in, personal and wearable. Unlike gold and diamond jewellery, that often feels like occasion wear, silver pieces don’t sit inside lockers or velvet boxes, awaiting those special days.
Here’s How You Can Wear More Than Just A Gemstone Pendant
When it comes to simple silver or gold jewellery, there is generally no confusion on how to wear it or style it, but when it is gemstone, there is a little worry. A lot of people think that because there is a coloured stone in the mix, the possibilities of wearing the same become limited. The fact is far from it – with a few tips and tricks, you will be able to wear your gemstone jewellery almost on a daily basis!
-
Avoid the whole ‘matching matching’! – Just because you are wearing a blue dress, does not mean that you have to wear it with blue gemstones earrings. Think of matching your blue outfit with green stones or maybe white moonstone – this will create a more harmonious, contrasting look.
-
Match the vibe, not the colour - Most people spend way too long holding jewellery up to their clothes trying to see if the colours line up. Rather, ask yourself what mood you’re trying to create. Moonstone with silver has this soft, hazy, almost romantic feel. Onyx comes in with a completely different attitude - calm, sharp, confident. Go with the energy that matches what you want for the day, and you’ll look far more put together than if you chased perfect colour matches.
-
Pick one hero piece - It helps to start with the piece you actually love, the one you’d reach for even if no one else was looking. Maybe it’s that ruby ring that feels almost too dramatic for weekday wear, or a turquoise gemstone pendant that always ends up being the star of your outfit. Once you’ve chosen that, everything else should sit quietly around it.
-
Don’t judge by shine alone - Two pieces can shine the same amount and still feel completely different. Polished silver looks clean and almost crisp. Oxidised silver has a bit more depth, a slightly artsy look, almost like it has a story behind it. Pick the finish that matches the tone of your clothes and your plans for the day. It makes a bigger difference than people realise.
-
Layer gently - Layering only works when it feels like you didn’t fight with it. A couple of fine chains, maybe one pendant that actually means something, and you’re set. Same with gemstone bracelets - one or two is usually enough to make the point. If you look in the mirror and feel like your jewellery is talking louder than your outfit, take one thing off.
-
Check the undertones - Just a quick glance is enough. Hold the stone near your skin and your clothes and notice how it sits. Cool stones like aquamarine or amethyst usually blend beautifully with silver. Warmer stones like garnet or citrine can look surprisingly good too, especially against deeper fabrics. Trust your eye here; it’s usually right.
