Emerald Band Rings by Gary Stucchi

Rings have long symbolized the circle of life. At Gemvara, we believe that the rings you wear should be one of a kind, like you. That's why our rings are made to order in your choice of conflict-free gems and recycled precious metals. Choose black onyx and platinum or garnet and yellow gold: it's your choice. Mix and match gems and precious metals for a look that's exactly you. It's jewelry for all life's occasions, from an anniversary or holiday to your own personal milestones and celebrations. Our unrivalled selection of designs by Jessica Behzad, Martha Gomez Gutierrez, Gary Stucchi, and other talented jewelry designers means you can find a ring that's just your style. Because all Gemvara emerald band rings are made to order, we can hand-select the finest quality materials to perfectly suit your design. Emerald shimmers with the rich, verdant color of spring. Be careful when removing rings to wash your hands. Don't leave your ring on the rim of a sink where it can slip down the drain! Clean emerald band rings with mild dish soap: use a soft brush where dust collects. Gemvara's fine quality emerald band rings are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

Master craftsman and world traveler, Gary Stucchi designs unique pieces that you can treasure for a lifetime and share with future generations. The leading custom jeweler in Natick, Massachusetts, he has been designing and making jewelry since he was 10 years old: after making a pendant with his older brother, he knew he had found his calling. Recently he was commissioned by Wellesley College to create a custom pin for Madeleine Albright, noted jewelry collector. Gary designed an intricate, dimensional globe pin that represents the former Secretary of State's mastery of international diplomacy. Gary is also known for his popular "A Mother's Gift" collection of elegant stackable mother's rings. "It always seems that the simplest designs resonate with people," he says. "My inspiration is looking at what's not there: the blank canvas or the clear mind, where true creativity is born."

Known as the gem of Venus, the emerald is a symbol of love, rebirth, and even an aid to fertility. Popular among style icons Jacqueline Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, and the Duchess of Windsor, emeralds are as fashionable as they are glamorous. When purchasing an emerald, the most important element to consider is color. Fine emeralds have a vibrant, grass-green color. Among the rarest of gems, they are almost always found with birthmarks, known as inclusions and often called "jardin." Some imperfections are expected, but do not detract from the value of the stone (unlike most other gemstones). In fact, an emerald without flaws would not look natural to a connoisseur. The fissures that are characteristic of the emerald are traditionally filled with oil or resin as to not diminish the gem's brilliance. Gemvara sells only natural, vivid green emeralds in exceptional quality from Colombia. Emerald is May's birthstone and the 20th and 35th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality emerald will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine emerald jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
