Welcome to May!
With it getting closer to summer and the days getting
longer, it means that we are getting some lovely warm weather! Here at Nova Silver,
we are all getting excited for the warm summer days so we have created a list
of some of our top picks to get you into the mood for summer!
Green Amber: The May Birthstone
May’s birthstone is the beautiful Green Amber.
Not only is green amber a lovely stone to wear in the sunnier days due to sometimes
having a glittery look, it’s a stone that varies in colour and hue. Some cuts
of green amber have an orange base and some have a dark green base. The Green
Amber stone is a variety of olivine which is a group of minerals. The name
olivine comes from Latin and was chosen at the end of the 18th century, as the
stone has an olive to bottle green colour.
Whether you are looking for yourself or a
birthday gift, we have this beautiful Green Amber leaf pendant which is very
sweet and petite and is perfect for a piece to wear every day. Or if you’re a
fan of more statement jewellery, we have a lovely range of bespoke green amber
pendants including some gorgeous oval shaped dark green amber pendants with a lovely
silver setting.
Best flowers to pick in May
There is a beautiful selection of flowers that
grow in May. However, some of our favourites that grow are roses, heather and
the lovely Poppy. We have a beautiful range of pendants and earrings from our
Shrieking Violet range that have real versions of these flowers set in resin!
One of our personal favourites is this pretty Heather pendant. The green stalk
in the middle of the pendant with the flower surrounding it makes it a striking
piece! Heather flowers are believed to offer good luck or fortune and to
represent independence.
