Something Blue Jewellery
Brides & Grooms of 2024, weddings are go! And what better way to plan your wedding jewellery than with a dazzling touch of blue sparkle? Not only beautiful, the colour blue is also said to bring you luck on your wedding day.
We all know the famous wedding tradition ‘something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue’, and we’re here to help when it comes to ‘something blue’. Whether you’re looking for a special gift for your bride to be, the mother of the bride or getting ready to walk down the isle yourself, here’s our favourite blue jewellery.
Where did the something blue tradition come from?
If you’re wondering where the ‘something blue’ tradition came from, it’s said to have derived from the old English rhyme “Something olde, something new, something borrowed, something blue, a sixpence in your shoe.” It was believed that brides wearing something blue would be protected from the Evil Eye, as the colour blue stands for purity, love and fidelity.
As time has gone on, this tradition has stuck and blue wedding touches such as blue jewellery, blue shoes or even blue flowers are increasingly popular. For us, you can’t go wrong with a beautiful blue pendant, earrings or bracelet. Our beautiful blue jewellery pieces will tick ‘something new’ off your list too. We’ll leave it to you to decide if you want a sixpence in your shoe!
Our favourite blue jewellery
We’ve chosen our favourite jewellery pieces that sparkle with carefully selected precious gemstones in beautiful shades of blue, to help you find your perfect something blue wedding jewellery.
Set in precious metals from sterling silver to 18ct gold, go for sapphire for deep regal tones, or try aquamarine for a softer light blue that will look gorgeous on your wedding day.
Aquamarine jewellery
For jewellery that’s really special, these 9ct White Gold Diamond and Aquamarine Earrings are the perfect something blue wedding earrings. Dazzling in pretty aqua tones, the diamonds glittering next to the gemstone have been chosen especially for their magnificent fire and sparkle and to complement the aquamarine stone beautifully.
