Mother Nature might be to blame for the muted colours and the brisk chill of the winter months, but she is also responsible for the wonderful array of tones and hues in our gemstones. Want to know what jewellery to wear this winter? Read on...
We’ve put together a guide to our favourite three shades of winter, and whether you choose to complement or contrast with the neutral tones of the season, there’s an ideal gemstone just waiting to join your collection.
It is the life of the crystal, the architect of the flake, the fire of the frost, the soul of the sunbeam. This crisp winter air is full of it. John Burroughs

Warm radiating colours are an absolute must as the dark nights start drawing in, and Cruzeiro Topaz perfectly combines a bright red body colour with glowing orange embers that remind us of a crackling log fire. Ruby never fails to warm the heart with its perfect deep red hue, which is why so many know it as the gemstone of love. The swirling reds of Fossil Red Coral allow for a bold, statement look to complement your winter wardrobe.
There is a shade of red for every woman. Audrey Hepburn

Nature treats us to some spectacular greens through all four seasons, but winter opens the door to wonderful perennial tones and forest shades. Brighten up the dark winter nights with a flash of Emerald, a gem that will shine no matter how cold the weather is. Fern Green Quartz lends itself effortlessly to the season with its bright tones giving way to deeper flashes of brilliance.
Green is the colour of nature; of growth, renewal and harmony. Anon

Neutral colours like white and grey work wonderfully in the winter season. For those that love the unmistakable beauty of snow and frost, Petalite offers a dazzlingly clear gemstone that sparkles and shines like a shard of solid ice. Moonstone offers the wearer grey-white body colours, but with hidden swathes of colour just waiting to burst forth, even in the subdued winter sunlight. Cullinan Topaz finishes the look with its unrivalled crystal clarity.
Grey has no agenda… Grey has the ability, that no other colour has, to make the invisible visible. Roma Tearne
