The Holiday Season is upon us and *New Releases* are now available to celebrate the gifting season. Each jewelry item is handcrafted, one-of-a-kind, and tells a unique story.
Evergreens have traditionally been used to celebrate winter festivals for thousands of years. Pagans used branches to decorate their homes and brighten spirits during the winter solstice, as it made them think of the spring to come. Early Romans used evergreens to decorate their temples at the festival of Saturnalia. Christians use it as a symbol of Christ's rebirth and the holy trinity. Even Ancient Egyptians used greens as part of their worship of the god Ra, the god of the sun (whom I think we all miss a lot during the winter months!).
But who says decorating with greens has to be limited to a corner of your living room and the top of your mantelpiece? At Original Eve, we bring you evergreens you can enjoy all year round. And unlike the greens that shed needles all over your floors, these greens will stay full of life and color well into the New Year.
The Chrysotile Earrings are one-of-a-kind. Chrysotile is a fibrous variety of serpentine that has high tensile strength. The word chrysotile is Greek for “hair of gold”; however, the gold pales next to the richness of green in these striking earrings.
The Moss Agate Earrings contain inclusions that resemble trees, plants, and landscapes. The gorgeous flora of Moss Agate's inclusions are an everlasting symbol of renewal and rebirth. Imagine a garden that never fades in autumn or a house plant that thrives even without water or sun. Moss Agate holds a lush variety of "vegetation" that will add color and life to your wardrobe without pruning or water.
The tapered ring from which this Green Tahitian Pearl is suspended celebrates the unique circle pattern that rings the lustrous pearl.
The pearl's asymmetrical form is created by amazing criss-crossed ridges of dark green that separate sections of yellow, green, and pink. With a spectacular luster and prismatic orient, the shifting hues of this pearl mesmerize.
The Jungle Tourmaline earrings feature asymmetrically arranged tourmaline cabochons in peacock blue and rich forest green. The earrings feature a back composed of an elegant leaf cut-out inspired by sunlight coming through leaves in the canopy. These earrings are a perfect way to bring the wild home and wear a range of greens evoking the most luscious jungle.
Winner of a 2020 Jewelers of America CASE Award, the Green Tourmaline Jungle Bracelet features an elongated emerald cut tourmaline of 31.70-carats balanced horizontally on a cuff composed of a trellis of 18k leaves.
This phenomenal green tourmaline gleams. Elevated to allow light to enter the stone from all angles, this gemstone radiates a verdant glow.
Even with a light hint of green, the Prasiolite Slice Necklace is a wonderful way to bring nature into your wardrobe while adding a bit of sparkle.
Faceted slices of Prasiolite with geometric and edgy cuts are linked by leaf forms that allow the gems to move freely and rest comfortably against the skin. The necklace is supple in its movement, modern in design, and perfect for someone on your list with an appreciation for nature and chic fashion.
