Benitoite necklaces

A rare blue gem found in gem quality only in California, where it is the official state gem. Famed for strong fire and a vivid sapphire blue color. Here is how it works in necklaces specifically.

Choosing a Benitoite necklace

Necklaces sit protected against the body, so even softer stones work well. For color, look for an even blue tone, and match the metal to your skin tone and budget.

Best metals and settings

Benitoite pairs well with white gold, platinum. An open setting lets more light into the stone. Compare options in our metal guides.
