Sapphires & Rubies | A symbol of integrity and wisdom, sapphires and rubies are among the most durable naturally occurring elements in the world. Recognised as two of the four precious gemstones, sapphires vary in ethereal hues, making it one of the most sacred gems available. Steeped in history and worshiped by royals as a symbol is power, sapphires are believed to represent wisdom, virtue, good fortune and strength. All our stones are genuine mineral stones with the exclusion of cubic zirconias. |
Pearls |
Throughout history pearls have been praised for their beauty, perfection and rarity. At Hemera & Nyx, we use natural freshwater and Keshi pearls in our sterling silver and gold-plated jewellery. Renowned for their durability with an untreated, natural shade of white — freshwater pearls do not discolour and each pearl is uniquely shaped by nature. |
Cubic Zirconias | Often regarded as an affordable diamond alternative, cubic zirconia is a man-made gemstone that is a lot more durable than natural gemstones. As an affordable alternative to diamonds, we take pride in selecting the best AAA+ quality available. |
