Gemstone Rings

Gemstones are full of meaning and symbolism. Some serve as birthstones, some are associated with your zodiac sign and others are connected to certain anniversary milestones. Look into the meaning of different gemstones to help you choose the right one for the occasion. Alternatively, you can simply pick a gemstone in your favourite hue or a colour that compliments your style.

Whether or not a gemstone ring can be worn every day depends on the type of gemstone in the setting. Some gemstones, like sapphires, rubies and topaz, are very durable and fantastic for everyday wear. On the other hand, softer tanzanite and opal gemstone rings are more suitable for special occasions.

Most gemstone rings are safe to clean with warm water, mild soap and a soft-bristled brush. When it is not being worn, you should store your gemstone ring safely away in a felt-lined jewellery box to prevent scratches.

Gemstone rings have been worn for personal adornment since ancient times, and they are only continuing to grow in popularity today. The variations in colour, design and affordability allow you to find a fine gemstone ring that showcases your style and personality. Coloured gemstones are a popular diamond alternative for engagement rings as well, particularly romantic rubies and stunning blue aquamarine.
