Ever notice that a gemstone can look different from one room to the next?
You're not imagining it. Gemstones interact with light in different ways, and the type of lighting around you can affect how their color, brilliance and depth appear. Natural daylight, warm indoor lighting and showroom lighting can each reveal something slightly different.
This is one reason we recommend taking your time when choosing a colored gemstone. Look at it from different angles and, when possible, under different lighting conditions.
A gemstone isn't simply a color on a chart. Its character comes from the way it interacts with light.
Our jewelry experts can help you understand those subtle differences and find a gemstone that truly speaks to you.
