Verdure

This post is all about the color “green”, thanks to Pantone naming “Emerald” as the “Color of the Year”, and adding a couple of other “greens” for the fall/winter season.

Green is the color for nature, life, fertility and cold hard cash! I decided to go with the flow. I synchronized with the trend and pulled out a bunch of green rocks from the vault.

Here’s what got made:

“Raw” Emerald Earrings with Gem Quality Briolettes

“Raw” emeralds are opaque, and much more affordable than the kind Richard Burton used to buy for La Liz. Here, I’ve mixed up the a variety of qualities for these emerald earbobs.

Rose Cut Peridot Earrings with Green Kyanite Drops

I just love the combo of green kyanite and peridot. Green kyanite is said to balance one with nature and opens the door to communicating with nature spirits. Like citrine, green kyanite will not hold negativity. The peridot helps keep the positive vibe by cleansing negative emotions like jealousy and a wounded ego.

Rose Cut Green & Watermelon Tourmaline “Miss Matched” Earrings

Lord knows I can’t get through a post without at least one tourmaline piece! Here’s a pair of green rose cuts with watermelon babies, similar but different!

Rose Cut Green Garnet Ring

Green garnets are the go to rock for prosperity and abundance. This ring is stackable, and brings wealth on all levels: creatively, physically and emotionally.

Peridot Strand Necklace

I’ve been looking high and low to put something with this gorgeous strand of peridot. It is so assertive, I decided that it needed to be it’s own strand. Hand knotted on silk with a handmade toggle clasp. Enough said.
