Taaffeite necklaces

One of the rarest gemstones in the world, first identified from a cut stone rather than in the rough. Collectors prize its soft lilac and mauve tones. Here is how it works in necklaces specifically.

Choosing a Taaffeite necklace

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

Best metals and settings

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