Not into diamonds?

Who says forever has to sparkle in the traditional way? Sure, diamonds get all the glory, but if they’re not your vibe, you’ve got options—beautiful options.

Here are some equally brilliant stones that can stand up well to everyday wear:

• Sapphire – from classic deep blues to greens, pinks, yellows, even creamy whites

• Ruby – bold reds and romantic pinks

• Spinel – think blues, purples, greys, pinks, reds, and even black

• Topaz – champagne, sunshine yellow, icy blues, or crisp white

• Alexandrite – magical color-changing (green by day, purple by night)

• Chrysoberyl – fresh, zesty greens that pop

ON-TREND GEMS (but a little more delicate):

If you don’t mind a bit of extra care, these stones are having a major moment:

Opal, Pearl, Emerald, Aquamarine, Tourmaline, Turquoise

MODERN CLASSICS:

Not all diamonds are dug out of the earth—lab-grown beauties are giving mined stones some serious competition:

• Moissanite – fiery, brilliant, and almost indestructible

• Lab-Grown Diamonds – the real deal, just born in a lab

• Lab-Grown Sapphires, Rubies, Emeralds, Opals – timeless with a twist
