Coloured Gemstones
Coloured gemstones from Townsends Jewellery Studios. Gemstone jewellery has been greatly admired for millennia and prized for their exceeding rarity. Our range of gemstones is brought to the UK from across the globe, with each gem having incredible variety in its colour. We offer bespoke gemstone engagement rings alongside other gemstone jewellery. There is no right or wrong when choosing your coloured gemstones – it comes down to your personal preference.
When choosing the right coloured gemstone for you, you need to consider a multitude of factors—your lifestyle, how and where you will wear the gemstone jewellery, et cetera.
Your choice of gemstone plays a big factor in the occasions you should wear your jewellery. For everyday wear, for example, you need to choose a relatively durable coloured gemstone.
The resistance of minerals, such as our range of coloured gemstones, is assessed globally using the Mohs Scale of Hardness. Materials appear on this scale ranging from 1-10. E.g. talcum powder is a 1 and diamonds are a perfect 10, closely followed by ruby and sapphire.
At Townsends we have expert jewellers who studied gemmology for years so you can have the confidence in your gemstone choices with us.
