Color of the Year for 2013 is Emerald Green

"Green is the most abundant hue in nature- the human eye sees more green than any other color in the spectrum" -Leatrice Eiseman (Director of the Pantone Color Institute)

I am excited to announce that emerald green has been chosen as the color of the year for 2013. This vivid hue has been known in many cultures to represent healing, unity and renewal. It is an organic color that brings new worlds of inspiration to us this coming year. Green brings energy into many colors paired with it, which is why I have always loved designing with it. The tone is enhanced especially with any gold-colored metal.

Emerald Green is sophisticated and luxurious, it brings to life a breathe of fresh air to any given day. No one ever gets tired of seeing the grass turn emerald green in the spring, or seeing a luscious emerald green landscape.

Be prepared to see this color pop up everywhere, in fashion, art and especially jewelry. We will see this color all around next year and we are going to want it in our homes, closets and lives!

Featured is our bezel Emerald Green Dark Chalcedony set in vermeil and 18k gold filled chain. This little necklace looks absolutely stunning paired with a black dress or if you want to go a bit more contemporary try pairing it with a bolder color such as celestial blue or even last years color of the year tangerine tango.
