A Guide to Our Natural Stones
Every gemstone used in Stone Orchard jewellery is naturally unique. Variations in colour, pattern, clarity and texture are part of the character of genuine stones and make every piece one of a kind.
Explore some of the gemstones you’ll find throughout our collections and discover what makes each of them distinctive.
Amethyst
Known for its beautiful violet tones, Amethyst ranges from soft lilac to deeper purple. Natural variations in colour and clarity make every stone unique.
Labradorite
Labradorite is loved for its subtle flashes of blue, green and gold that appear as the stone catches the light. Each piece has its own individual pattern and play of colour.
Herkimer Quartz
Herkimer Quartz is a naturally double-terminated quartz crystal prized for its exceptional clarity and sparkle. Despite its name, it is a variety of quartz rather than a diamond.
Natural Pearl
Natural-shaped pearls are valued for their organic forms, delicate lustre and individual character. Their small differences in shape and surface are part of their natural beauty.
Aquamarine
Aquamarine is known for its fresh blue and blue-green shades, ranging from almost translucent to more saturated tones.
Citrine
Citrine brings warm shades of pale yellow, honey and golden amber. Its natural colouring gives jewellery a soft, luminous warmth.
Tourmaline
Tourmaline occurs naturally in a remarkable variety of colours — from pink and green to deep black. This diversity makes it especially beautiful in mixed-gemstone designs.
Morganite
Morganite is recognised for its delicate blush, peach and soft pink tones. Its understated colouring pairs beautifully with both warm metals and other natural stones.
