Green is among the most sought-after colors for gemstones and has always been an important color in the gemstone world.
It is a sophisticated color that adds a touch of elegance to any outfit. Green symbolizes life and renewal, as well as freshness, nature, and energy. It is the most soothing color on the spectrum and we’re naturally drawn to it. Although emeralds may be the most well-known green gemstone, there are over 100 types of green gemstones that can be used in jewelry.
In this article, we’ll be exploring 30 of the most beautiful and popular green gemstones you can use in your jewelry designs. So, if you’re interested in discovering the beauty and sustainability of green gemstones, read on!
Green Gemstones List
1. Green Diamond
Green diamonds are extremely rare. While most colored diamonds get their color from the presence of trace elements, green diamonds are quite unique in this respect. They receive their coloring from natural irradiation that occurs over thousands of years. Yes, radiation is dangerous, but green diamonds are not radioactive and are safe to wear.
Green diamonds are very expensive, but not as much as red or pink diamonds. They are found ranging in shades from faint to deep green, sometimes with secondary tones of yellow, brown, or blue. Because they are so expensive, synthetic (man-made) green diamonds offer a more affordable option.
2. Green Sapphire
Until recently, green sapphires were not considered very desirable, but they are now increasing in popularity. Green sapphires are quite rare and get their color from the presence of iron. Because blue is the desirable sapphire color, it can be difficult to find green sapphire jewelry.
These gemstones come in shades varying from faint green to dark green, with secondary hints of blue or yellow. Because of sapphire’s excellent gemstone qualities, such as high durability (Mohs 9), brilliance, and beauty, green sapphires are a good choice for all types of rings. Most green sapphires are heat treated, which is a common industry standard.
3. Emerald
The most popular green gemstone of all, emeralds have been used since antiquity. The famous Egyptian queen Cleopatra was known for wearing emeralds. Emeralds were even used in burial rituals, as mummies have been found buried with emeralds.
Emeralds are a member of the illustrious beryl family of gemstones. When purchasing an emerald, the most important factor is color. After all, an emerald is nothing if not green. The more intense and vivid the color, the more valuable the stone. Most emeralds contain inclusions, often moss-like threads nicknamed ‘jardin’ for the French word garden.
These are very common and eye-clean emeralds are incredibly rare. Emeralds are fairly durable stones (7.5 to 8 Mohs) but the inclusions can cause the stone to weaken and chip when exposed to rough wear. They are commonly treated and fracture-filled to enhance color and stability.
Emeralds are ideal for all types of jewelry but extra care must be taken if chosen for an engagement ring.
4. Jade
The word jade is nearly a synonym of green. Jade has been valued and used since ancient times, especially in China where jade usage can be traced back to over 7000 years ago! Jade comes in two varieties: jadeite and nephrite. Jadeite is considered more valuable and of better quality, while nephrite is more abundant and less expensive. Jade is fairly soft (6 Mohs) but very tough due to its compact composition.
Most jade is often cut into cabochons or various special smooth cuts or carved. Faceting jade is less common but can give the gemstone added brilliance. Jade has an attractive waxy luster that makes you want to reach out and touch the gemstone.
5. Green Agate
Agate is found in a variety of colors, with green being one of the rarer varieties. It is generally banded or found with dendritic inclusions. Unicolor green gemstones are almost always dyed to achieve the color. Agate is smooth with a vitreous luster and is generally translucent to opaque.
They are commonly cut into cabochons but sometimes faceted for more depth and light reflection. Agates have very good durability (7 Mohs) and are suitable for all types of jewelry. Green agate is a fairly affordable gemstone although the quality of the setting and workmanship involved can hike the price of the overall piece.
6. Tsavorite
Tsavorite (a.k.a. tsavolite) is a new gemstone in the jewelry market. It is a variety of green grossular garnet and gets its striking green color from trace amounts of vanadium or chromium present during its formation. Tsavorite is one of the most popular of the garnet varieties and due to its rarity, it is quite valuable.
Tsavorite is a very good substitute for emeralds, as it is more durable (7 to 7.5 Mohs), less expensive, and equally beautiful and brilliant. What’s more, unlike emeralds, tsavorites are rarely (if ever) treated and are a natural gem. They have also not yet been synthesized.
Tsavorite gemstones occur in vivid green shades and are generally eye-clean stones of excellent transparency. They are almost always faceted to enhance their brilliance. Most tsavorite is found in up to 1-carat pieces with stones over 2 carats being rare.
7. Demantoid Garnet
Another member of the garnet family, demantoids belongs to the andradite variety. Demantoids are the most valuable type of garnets and are also very rare. Most demantoid gemstones come in sizes under 2 carats so finding a large demantoid stone is difficult.
Demantoids occur in colors ranging from faint to vivid emerald green. Some have secondary colors of yellow or brown, which are less desirable. Vivid green demantoids, which primarily come from Russia, are the most valuable. Some demantoids contain rare horsetail-shaped inclusions, which are not found in other gems.
These inclusions add value to the stone, making demantoids one of the very few gemstones that gain value from their impurities. Demantoids are highly brilliant gemstones and are durable enough for regular use.
8. Peridot
Peridot is an idiochromatic stone meaning that it is only found in one color. It comes in shades of green, often with yellowish tones. Peridot is one of only two stones (the other being diamonds) that are formed deep within the mantle of the earth and come to the surface through violent geological activity.
This is why it is also known as a volcanic gemstone. Peridot is durable enough for regular use (6.5 to 7 Mohs) but ideally should be mounted in protective settings, such as a bezel, when used in rings. Peridot can be cut into all standard gem shapes, such as ovals, marquise, rounds, squares, and trilliants. These shapes bring out the brilliance of the stone.
Most peridot is eye-clean but can sometimes contain lillypad-like inclusions or little black spots, visible under magnification.
9. Alexandrite
Alexandrite is a color-changing stone, known for being an ‘emerald by day and a ruby by night’. It is valued for its ability to change color from green to red based on the light source it is viewed under. Because alexandrite is very expensive and rare, the majority of alexandrites on the market are lab-created versions.
On a side note, lab-created doesn’t mean fake. They are identical to natural alexandrites with the main difference being that they were created using science and technology.
Alexandrite is a hard stone (8.5 Mohs) and has excellent durability and toughness. It can be used in all types of jewelry and worn every day.
10. Amazonite
This gemstone presumably gets its name from the Amazon Rainforest even though there are no amazonite deposits in that area. It comes in shades of light green to blue-green color, but the most desirable variety is a deep, leaf-green.
Amazonite often contains white streaks or lines, forming random patterns that add character and depth to the stone. These beautiful gemstones are not generally treated or enhanced in any way. They are abundantly found and are reasonably priced.
11. Green Tourmaline – a.k.a. Verdalite
Tourmaline comes in all colors of the rainbow, with the green variety known as verdalite. Green tourmaline is a very popular gemstone and is found in all shades of green, with mint green being the most valuable. Tourmalines contain no cleavage and are quite hard (7 to 7.5 Mohs) making them durable gemstone. Generally, green tourmalines contain little to no impurities, but those with inclusions are weaker and more prone to damage.
Green tourmalines have a vitreous luster and interact beautifully with light. When used in jewelry, green tourmalines are often faceted to maximize the reflection of light. While most tourmalines are heat treated, this is not common for green varieties.
12. Aventurine
Aventurine is a variety of the common quartz family. It is commonly green but can also be found in other colors. It has beautiful colors from light to dark forest green. Aventurine has a glitter effect across its surface that comes from the small flaky impurities present in the stone, known as aventurescence. This is a desirable quality of the gemstone and adds to its beauty.
Although of medium hardness (6.5 to 7 Mohs) aventurine is a tough gemstone due to its compact structure. It has a vitreous to waxy luster and is often translucent to opaque.
Aventurine is mostly cut into cabochons and is classified as a minor gemstone. Aventurine can fit all styles of jewelry, such as bohemian, vintage, and contemporary designs, depending on the type of setting it is paired with.
13. Green Labradorite
Labradorite is a beautiful gemstone that often has distinct iridescence (known as labradorescence_ and displays flashes of color. Some labradorite displays the entire spectrum of colors while others are more subdued. Opaque varieties of labradorite are more desirable as they have labradorescence, whereas rare, transparent labradorite does not display this.
Labradorite is a plagioclase feldspar and displays its distinct labradorescence due to the way in which the rock is formed with the impurities within it. Ranking at 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, it is not very scratch resistant but is a fairly tough stone. It is used in various styles of jewelry but is particularly beautiful in bohemian and gypsy designs.
14. Bloodstone (a.k.a. Heliotrope and Blood Jasper)
Bloodstone derives its name from the red and brown spots that dot its surface, like blood spots. Apart from this morbid association, bloodstones are beautiful gemstones that have been used since ancient times. Bloodstones are dark green to bluish-green gemstones of the chalcedony family and have a hardness of 6.5 to7. They are normally cut en cabochon but may sometimes be faceted. They are also ideal for carvings.
Due to their hardness and toughness, bloodstones can be made into any type of jewelry, from delicate pieces to statement items. They are especially popular as a gemstone for men’s rings. Bloodstones are usually not treated or enhanced in any way and the color is natural. They are also very affordable making them a perfect gemstone to add to any jewelry collection.
15. Malachite
Malachite is known for its bright green color and interesting banding and eyes. The inclusions and intergrowths of malachite with other minerals and elements create beautiful and intriguing patterns. Malachite is fairly abundant and reasonably priced. However, high-quality malachite gemstones with unusual patterns or chatoyancy will command higher prices.
Malachite is a very soft gemstone (3.4 to 4) and has perfect cleavage. As a result, if exposed to rough wear and knocks, malachite can easily be damaged. It also does not handle heat or chemicals well. However, due to its stunning patterns and relative affordability, malachite is a popular gemstone, especially for statement pieces.
16. Green Topaz
Topaz is naturally colorless but gets its colors from the presence of trace elements such as chromium. Green topaz is generally very light in color with a vitreous luster. However, it is not a very popular topaz color.
Green topaz is quite brilliant and is often faceted to bring out this brilliance. Green topaz, like all topaz varieties, is an ideal gemstone for jewelry because it is durable (8 Mohs) and affordable. It is often transparent and rarely contains visible inclusions. Green topaz can be used in all types of jewelry, from bracelets and rings to earrings and pendants.
17. Green Zircon
This gemstone is known for its exceptional brilliance and fire, which makes it a stunning addition to any jewelry collection. What sets green zircon apart is its durability, as it is one of the hardest gemstones with a score of 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale.

Green zircon is also believed to have healing properties, including helping with sleep and reducing anxiety. With its dazzling color and impressive durability, green zircon is a must-have for anyone looking to add some sparkle and personality to their jewelry collection.
18. Green Pearl
What makes green pearls so fascinating is their formation process. Unlike other gemstones, pearls are created within living creatures – oysters and mussels – adding an element of natural wonder to their beauty. Green pearls are formed when certain species of oysters secrete a green pigment called “conchiolin” around the nucleus placed inside their shell.
This results in a stunning and rare, green-colored pearl. Despite their delicate appearance, pearls are surprisingly durable, with a hardness of 2.5 to 4.5 on the Mohs scale. Their hardness varies depending on their type and formation, but they can withstand everyday wear and tear if cared for properly. If you’re looking for a unique and stunning addition to your jewelry collection, green pearls are the perfect choice.

Green Gemstones and Skin Tone
Green gemstones can look beautiful on a variety of skin tones, but certain shades of green may complement different skin tones more than others.

Warm-toned skin may pair well with green gemstones with yellow or golden undertones, such as peridot or chrysoprase. If you aren’t sure what your skin tone is, read our article on skin tones.

Which Green Gemstone Should I Choose?

Soft Green Gemstones
