Beautiful Gems to Brighten Up a Dark Winter's Day – Part 1

We're right
in the depths of winter with short days and freezing nights, and while spring
might be only a few months away we've have a lot more cold, dark days to get through before we start to see the sun
a bit more. What better way to brighten
up your life than with some stunning colourful jewellery from Amore Argento?
The Pantone
Color Institute is the last word on fashionable and contemporary colours, and
they are predicting bright colours as well as some muted pastel shades for
2020, with blue being the standout star.
There is also a smattering of different warm colours from rich reds to
orange and yellow, so topaz, aquamarine, sapphires, garnet, rubies and citrine
are all great picks for on trend colours.
The great
thing about blue gemstones is that they work really well all year round,
mirroring the icy feel of the weather and a crisp winter sky during the colder
months, and providing a refreshing accent to warmer colours in the summer –
blue gems also look fantastic with a tan making them very versatile. Our Rhapsody in Blue collection is a
beautiful four-piece set which evokes the look of icicles or even a frozen
waterfall. Different shades of blue
topaz are set in a sinuous line interspersed with cubic zirconia, which adds
sparkle and provides a glittering backdrop for the topaz. These pieces are ideal for pairing with a
simple outfit, or for wearing as an ensemble with a floor length gown for a
sophisticated look.
If you like
the look of the complementary shades of topaz you'll love the Triplicity set
which features three shades of topaz.
The design draws inspiration from floral shapes and snowflakes and the
delicate silver circles which nestle between each stone emphasises the snowflake
idea. The earrings and matching necklace
make a beautiful accompaniment to any outfit, both smart and casual and they'll
work just as well with a floaty summer dress as with a cosy winter outfit.
Our Blue Bomb
cocktail rings and Blue Moon cocktail jewellery also combine varying shades of
topaz in a clustered cocktail style, which is ideal for extroverts and those
who love to go one step further with their accessories. Not for the faint-hearted these extravagant
pieces are perfect for sophisticated nights out on the town, at the theatre or
opera, or for adding a touch of flair to a simple outfit. These pieces make quite the impact and
they're fabulous gifts too.
Sapphires are
a classic stone which have been desirable for centuries for their clarity and
depth of colour. Our Serenity sapphire
earrings and necklace twin the richness of the sapphires with cubic zirconia
which really sets off that deep blue.
The sterling silver mount works beautifully with these stones for an
expensive look in a unique style which you're sure to be asked about, so get
ready to spread the word when you wear the Serenity set. With a business-smart look they'll elevate
your style to new heights, and with a smart-casual outfit they'll make you look
so elegant people will assume you're a celebrity. The Everlasting sapphire ring is ideal for
matching with the Serenity pieces if you want to include a ring in your
accessories.
For those who
prefer a cooler blue tone aquamarine is a fantastic stone. Long associated with seafaring and good luck
this stone is a precious one, with a fabulously delicate colour that works with
a range of colours. We have styles
ranging from simple and understated to opulent and indulgent, so there's a
choice to suit every aesthetic and budget.
