The gemstones of Sparkling Jewels form the radiant heart of our collection. Whether you choose a loose necklace gemstone, earring gemstones, a necklace pendant, a ring, bracelet or necklace with a carefully selected gemstone, each piece of jewelry tells a story. A story of color, energy, and personality.

Gemstones are more than a stylish detail. They carry symbolism that resonates. Think of Amethyst for calm and clarity, Citrine for warmth and vitality, or Green Onyx for strength and stability. Each stone has its own character and meaning that gives your jewelry a personal touch.

Whether you create your own jewelry with an interchangeable stone or choose a complete design where the gemstone takes center stage, at Sparkling Jewels it’s all about style with feeling.

Gemstone jewellery: real natural stone you combine yourself

Gemstone jewellery gives your look colour and character. In this collection you will find bracelets, necklaces, pendants, earrings and rings with a real gemstone. With many pieces you can swap the stone yourself. So today you wear Rose Quartz and tomorrow Onyx, on the same base.

Most stones are natural semi precious stones. The metal is 925 sterling silver, gold filled or solid 9 carat gold, depending on the piece. Do you order on a working day before 3 pm? Then we ship your jewellery the same day, beautifully wrapped.

Which gemstone jewellery will you find here?

You will find every kind of jewellery here, and the stone plays a different role each time.

Gemstone bracelets

Stretch beaded bracelets with stones of 3, 4 or 6 mm form the heart of the collection. They are strung by hand, measure 18 cm and are made for stacking. There are also bracelets with a cut stone in a setting. In gold tone beaded bracelets, the metal beads are gold filled, a thick and durable layer of gold.

Necklaces, pendants and loose stones

Beaded necklaces with 2 mm beads give your neckline a fine line of colour. They measure 42 cm with a 2 cm extension chain. Pendants with a fixed stone hang on your own necklace. And with loose pendant gemstones you change the colour of your pendant whenever you like.

Earrings with a loose stone

With many earrings you hang an earring gemstone on your hoop or stud yourself. These stones also fit as a pendant on your necklace, and the other way around. So you wear the same stone from ear to neck.

Gemstone rings

Rings with a cut stone come in 925 sterling silver and in solid 9 carat gold. The gold rings have a longer delivery time, because the workshop makes them separately. There are also beaded rings with gemstone beads on a silver base.

Why choose jewellery with a changeable stone?

A changeable stone turns one piece of jewellery into a whole collection.

That idea is called Mix & Match and it is the heart of our brand. You buy one base, such as a hoop or a clip pendant. Then you add loose stones in the colours you love. Your outfit decides which stone you wear that day.

It is also smart for your budget. A loose stone is a small purchase and still gives you a completely new look. In the Mix & Match Studio you create your own piece and see the result right away.

Which gemstones do women choose most often?

A few stones have been favourites for years, each for its own reason:

Rose Quartz: soft pink, romantic and calm
Amethyst: purple, from lilac to deep violet
Onyx: deep black, sleek and timeless
Moonstone: milky white with a soft, blue sheen
Labradorite: grey with a colourful sheen that shifts
Smoky Quartz: warm smoky brown, lovely in autumn and winter
Tiger Eye: golden brown with a silky band of light

You will also see stones such as Citrine, Green Aventurine, Sodalite, Malachite and several types of jade. New colours arrive every season.

Which stone goes with gold or silver?

Warm stones such as Tiger Eye, Citrine and Smoky Quartz look beautiful with gold. Cool stones such as Moonstone, Labradorite and Sodalite shine with silver. Onyx and Rose Quartz go with both. Do you like mixing gold and silver? Then choose one stone that returns throughout your look, so it stays calm.

How do you know if a gemstone is real?

You can often recognise a real natural stone by its small imperfections.

Look for inclusions, fine lines and small colour differences. They form while the stone grows in nature. A stone that looks completely perfect and even is more often glass or plastic. Natural stone also feels cool when you first pick it up.

For every piece, the specifications tell you which type of stone it is. Usually it is natural stone. Sometimes it is Hydro Quartz, a natural crystal that gets its colour through heating. If a seasonal colour calls for a shade that nature does not provide, we occasionally choose a synthetic stone. We always state this honestly.

Why does my stone look different from the photo?

Natural stone is never the same twice. Colour and pattern differ per stone, even within one type. So your piece is truly unique.

What do gemstones mean?

Gemstones have had a place in stories and traditions for centuries.

According to that lore, Rose Quartz stands for love and Amethyst for calm. Onyx is seen as a stone of strength, Moonstone is linked to femininity and Labradorite to protection. That is why many women choose a stone with a story, for example as a gift or as a birthstone.

Good to know: these meanings come from tradition and from people's experiences. They are not scientifically proven. So choose your stone mainly on colour and feeling.

How to keep your gemstone jewellery beautiful

Gemstones are strong, but not indestructible.

Most semi precious stones have a hardness of about 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale. So they scratch less easily than glass, but a hard knock against a table can sometimes leave a mark. That is why you take off your jewellery when you exercise, clean and sleep.

Water, soap and perfume affect the plating and weaken elastic. Put on your perfume first and only then your jewellery. Do not leave stones in bright sunlight for long, because Amethyst and Rose Quartz fade from it. Store each piece separately and polish with a dry, soft cloth.

Why choose our gemstone jewellery?

Since 2014 we have been designing jewellery in the Netherlands, with the stone at the centre.

Frequently asked questions about gemstone jewellery

Below you will find answers to the questions we get most often.

Are the gemstones in your jewellery real?

Most stones are natural semi precious stones. For every piece, the specifications show whether it is natural stone, Hydro Quartz or, now and then, a synthetic stone.

Can I change the stone of my jewellery?

With many earrings and pendants, yes. You hang a loose stone on your hoop or clip pendant yourself. Earring gemstones and pendant gemstones are interchangeable.

Which gemstone suits me?

Choose mainly on colour. Warm stones go with gold and warm skin tones, cool stones with silver. Not sure? Then Onyx and Rose Quartz are safe choices, because they go with both.

Which gemstones are most popular in jewellery?

Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Onyx, Moonstone and Labradorite are classics. They have beautiful colours and are strong enough to wear every day.

Do gemstones fade in the sun?

Some stones do. Amethyst and Rose Quartz fade when they lie in bright sunlight for a long time. So store your jewellery in a box or pouch.

Can I shower with my gemstone jewellery?

Better not. Water and soap wear down the plating and weaken elastic. Take off your jewellery when you shower, swim and exercise.

Where can you buy Sparkling Jewels gemstone jewellery?

You order it right here online. Order on a working day before 3 pm and we ship the same day. More than 500 jewellers and retailers across Europe also sell the collection.
