Gemstone LOVE!

I love love LOVE gemstones!

They bring a myriad of colour, depth and personality to any piece of jewellery that they grace.

Its impossible to pick a favourite but here I shall endeavour to compile an ever growing list of some of those natural beauties - along with their own unique qualities, origins and significance.

So please have a flick through and feel free to get in touch if I am missing your special stone!
