About gemstone jewelry
Gemstone jewelry is where color enters the collection: sapphire's midnight blue, emerald's garden green, ruby's ember red, and rarities like alexandrite that shift hue with the light.
Aurelle gemstone jewelry — rings, pendants, and earrings — is made to order in 14k and 18k gold and platinum, with every stone sourced and vetted to the same standard as our certified diamonds. If we don't stock the stone you want, the concierge will find it.
Choose by hardness as much as color: sapphire and ruby wear daily without worry; emerald, opal, and pearl prefer gentler settings and occasions. Lifetime warranty on every piece.
Gemstone Jewelry FAQ
Which gemstones are durable enough for everyday jewelry?+
Sapphire and ruby — both corundum, at 9 on the Mohs scale — are the workhorses, safe in rings worn daily. Emerald, aquamarine, and morganite suit regular wear with some care; opal and pearl are best in earrings and pendants.
How much does real gemstone jewelry cost?+
Enormous range: pretty birthstone pendants start in the hundreds, while top-color sapphires, rubies, and emeralds can exceed diamond prices per carat. Color quality drives value more than size in nearly every colored stone.
What is the difference between precious and semi-precious gemstones?+
Tradition labels diamond, sapphire, ruby, and emerald precious and everything else semi-precious, but the trade has largely retired the distinction — a fine spinel or alexandrite can outvalue a mediocre ruby. Judge each stone on color, clarity, and cut.
Are lab-created gemstones real?+
They are the same crystal as their natural counterparts — same chemistry, same hardness — grown in controlled conditions, so they arrive cleaner and cost less. Natural stones carry origin value; both are legitimate, and we disclose which is which on every piece.
How do I care for gemstone jewelry?+
Warm soapy water and a soft brush suit almost everything; reserve ultrasonic cleaners for diamond, sapphire, and ruby only. Store pieces separately so harder stones cannot scratch softer ones, and use our free lifetime inspections.
What gemstone should I gift?+
The recipient's birthstone is the classic, personal answer; sapphire is the safest all-purpose choice for durability and universal appeal. Our concierge can source any stone and present options within days.
