Down to Earth Jewellery
Large Emerald Necklace (May Birthstone)
Introducing our stunning large gemstone necklace, a beautiful piece of jewellery that is now in stock and ready to ship the next working day. This necklace boasts a 12-14mm emerald set in copper and attached to a solid copper chain that is rose gold plated to preserve the finish. The chain is 2mm wide and has a lobster clasp that can extend from 40cm to 50cm, ensuring a comfortable and versatile fit for anyone.
As with all of our jewellery, this piece comes in a gorgeous jewellery box, accompanied by a relevant gemstone information card and a thank you note with care instructions. We take pride in the quality and unique features of our jewellery, and the raw and unpolished gemstones used in this necklace may have some imperfections that add to its individuality and charm.
The necklace is created through the copper electroforming process, where copper electrolytes are deposited over several hours in a copper-acid solution. This allows for the creation of organic and one-of-a-kind textures that are truly special.
We want you to enjoy this piece for years to come, and remind you that the copper may darken over time. To keep it looking its best, we recommend using Copperbrite and a soft cloth, available here: Copperbrite and/or polishing cloth – Down to Earth Jewellery. It's important to note that copper can react with the chemicals in some skins and turn them green. But fear not, a coat of clear nail polish will prevent this from happening and allow you to enjoy your necklace to the fullest.
As a May birthstone and a symbol of loyalty, truth, and love, this necklace is not only a beautiful accessory but also carries deep meaning and significance. With its elegant design and powerful symbolism, it's the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one.
About Emerald:
Probably the most valuable of the four famous precious gemstones, emeralds have been admired for their beauty and bold green colour for millennia. We often think of diamonds when we think of rare and expensive gemstones, but emeralds are more than 20 times more rare than diamonds. Emerald is the green variety of the family of beryl. Known from as early as 2 000 BC, Cleopatra’s passion for emeralds is well documented. It was also named as the fourth foundation stone in the wall of the new Jerusalem.
Some estimate that the oldest emeralds are around 2.97 billion years old.
Birthstone: May
Anniversary stone: 20th, 35th and 55th
Symbolism:
As the jewel of Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, the emerald has been known as a “stone of successful love”. It is seen as a symbol of loyalty, truth, unity, unconditional love, partnership and domestic bliss. It is also believed to enhance compassion, sensitivity and patience towards oneself and others.
