“Gemstones have a beauty unlike anything else because they allow light inside and refract it.” -Unknown

Summer is in full swing as the dog days of summer pass by, and here in Southern California we are loving the summer sun that’s out all day long!
As the sun doesn’t set till 8pm, we are here with a list of some of the best stones you can wear to take advantage of the bright summer sun! Check out our list of top summer gemstones down below!

Aquamarine



As the name suggests, this stunning stone shines as bright as the Southern California waves as they hit the beach. The perfect shade to pull together an outfit, and shine like the ocean.

Orange Sapphire



Followed up by a stone that matches the rays of the sunset, this sapphire is georigous and will make any summer dress pop that much more!

Peridot



Not only is this stunner the birthstone of those born in the month of August, but it also matches the hue of nature, something that we can’t get enough of this time of year! A classic shade for a classic outfit!

Morganite



Just as blushing as the rose you are drinking poolside, this beautiful gem really has the overall essence of summer. Taking cues from all other gems on this list, and refining the hue to be a little bit more elegant and upscale. Perfect addition to anything you’d wear to dinner.

Citrine

Wrapping up the list we have the stone that really pops this summer. Even bolder than the sapphire we mentioned above, this warm toned stone really makes a statement when it hits the afternoon sun. perfect for those who want to really make a statement.

What do you think of our list? Did we miss any? If you’ve now got the itch to get any of these for yourself feel free to stop by our showroom & we’d love to help you! Appointments are always appreciated and can be made HERE.
