Lesser-Known Types of Gemstones to Add to Your Collection
When it comes to collecting jewelry, most people immediately think of the classic diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. These stones certainly have their allure, yet there exists a world of gemstones that remain largely under the radar. As a jewelry aficionado, exploring these lesser-known beauties can enrich your collection and add layers of uniqueness to it.
The Magic of Alexandrite
Alexandrite is famed for its remarkable color-changing capability. Under natural daylight, it appears as a lovely shade of green, while under incandescent light, it transforms to a purplish-red hue. This rarity makes alexandrite an exceptional choice for those who wish to wear something truly magical. If you’re enticed by the allure of diamonds but want to add something different to your ensemble, the Round Cut Diamond Solitaire Pendant Necklace with Delicate Chain from Lucellia could complement your alexandrite pieces beautifully.
The Mystery of Black Opal
For lovers of depth and mystery, black opal presents an exquisite option. Known for its dark body tone and vibrant play of color, black opal is a sophisticated gem that captivates the wearer as well as the observer. Paired with black opals, Lucellia’s Round Cut Diamond Stud Earrings offer a perfect balance of subtle elegance and striking beauty.
The Glow of Tanzanite
Tanzanite, with its rich, deep blue hues and flashes of violet, is a relatively recent discovery in the gemstone world. It is exclusive to Tanzania and often features intricate cuts that reveal vivid colors. Incorporating tanzanite into your jewelry closet can add an exciting splash of color. Complement this vibrant gemstone with the Round Brilliant Diamond Trio Bezel Pendant Necklace with Delicate Chain for a sophisticated match.
Phenomenal Morganite
Morganite, with its soft pink tone and gentle luminosity, whispers elegance and grace. Its warm, peachy shades make it a glowing addition to any romantic collection. For a cohesive look, pair your morganite rings with the beautiful curvature of Lucellia’s Curved Diamond Bar Necklace with Graduated Diamond Pattern.
Exotic Tsavorite Garnet
Discovered in the Tsavo region of East Africa, tsavorite garnet is an electrifying green gemstone. Its vivid brilliancy and rarity might remind one of emeralds, yet sans the inclusion-filled intricacies. Pair your tsavorite pieces with Lucellia’s fabulous Pear Cut Diamond Teardrop Hoop Earrings with Prong Setting to enhance its vibrant aura.
