What is the meaning of gem colour in rings? A unique gem speaks volumes about your personality and, if it’s an engagement ring, your relationship. See which gemstone you are drawn to below, and discover the meaning behind their gorgeous colour – and what it says about your personality.


Pink

Pink is the ultimate feminine colour. What’s more, like the sacred lotus flower in Asian lore, it stands for beauty, understanding and unconditional love. It is a highly favourable colour for engagement rings, because pink gemstones are said to protect the love between the ring’s wearer and its giver for an entire lifetime.

White

White is a colour associated with light and snow. That’s why it stands for purity, sincerity and true feelings. A lustrous white pearl or an opal make wonderful, timeless birthday gifts. Representing successful new beginnings, white is also full of positive meaning for newly engaged couples. So it’s hardly a surprise that sparkling white diamonds make the most popular engagement rings.
