Vivid, Sophisticated, Universally Appealing... these are just a
few of the ways to describe Pantones color of 2013, EMERALD. Its been said that
a diamond may be forever but an emerald is divine… after all, historically the
emerald was a sacred stone of the Goddess Venus and what’s more divine than a
celestial Goddess? Cleopatra had an deep affinity for them, Aristotle
wrote about them, Elizabeth Taylor’s collection was dripping with them and who
could forget about how Angela Jolie owned them on the red carpet.
While the emerald color itself may be striking and lush the emerald gemstone symbolizes many attributes; some of these attributes include eternal youth, fertility and rebirth. Its said to promise luck, enhance well-being {think about the Emerald City…} and is a sign of beauty and constant love. The Emerald is also said to be a gemstone of Spring and as we slowly move into the warmer months consider making an emerald part of your collection and let it protect and guide you throughout the year.
this is my absolute favorite!
