Emerald ideas

Hi - wedding anniversary coming up! It's emerald, any wonderful ideas?
I like delicate necklaces, earrings - hoops, studs, anything.
I don't like 'cute' or animal stuff or big chunky things.
I wear a gold and silver wedding band and have a collection of other rings that I'm a bit hit and miss on.
I love the style of viv Westwood (personal not the range) Helena B-H, tilda Swinton, Kate moss.
I don't need it to be ££££ just pretty and maybe quirky?

No ideas? I've been looking at vintage rings. Need inspiration.

This shop always has lovely things:

Vintage Emerald Jewellery | The Antique Jewellery Company

They do tend to be £££ but there's a good variety for inspiration!

Love this ring: Regency 15ct Gold, Emerald & Natural Split Pearl Ring (783W) | The Antique Jewellery Company

Apologies if I’ve misunderstood but are you asking about lab grown in general? Personally I’m a big fan as they’re more sustainable and less chance somebody has been exploited along the way. Some people prefer natural stones though and they’re less likely to hold value if you wanted to sell on in the future.

Thanks @Salacia yes I don't know anything about them at all.

Oh I love that too.
This is why I wanted to ask because I know lots of fun costume or cheap and cheery places for piercings but not many for interesting jewellery
