Green With Envy: St. Patty’s Day Jewelry

Gold with green gems pendant

Question:

“Hi Amy! I enjoyed reading your blog on Aquamarine jewelry suggestions, especially because my birthday is in March and that’s my birthstone. As much as I love my birthstone, my favorite color is green… which may be because I was born on St. Patty’s Day. Aside from Emeralds, what other suggestions do you have for green gemstones?”

-Christine L. | Mesa, AZ

Amy’s Answer:

First off, happy early birthday, Christine! I know where you’re coming from– my birthday is in September so my birthstone is Sapphire, but my favorite gemstone is Tanzanite. Luckily for you, there are several stunning gemstones in beautiful greens including Emerald, Tsavorite and Tourmaline! With less than a week away, St. Patricks Day (and your birthday) is right around the corner and we’re definitely in the mood for green. With everything from green earrings, green rings, and green necklaces, there are plenty of options top help you show off your favorite color! Here are some of my top picks for everything green.

GREEN ONYX

A pair of matched Green Onyx steal the show in these Art Deco earrings. Their length and movement add instant sass to any outfit!
