Nature, The Universe, And A Little Gem Called Peridot

There are these pretty little green things that we think are so beautiful - so inspiring, that we thought we'd write a blog dedicated to them, and at the same time, tell you about the things we think about when we observe them. We're talking, of course, about our stunning peridot earrings. Have a read of our blog and embrace green jewellery like you've never done before!

Fire Up Your Look With Little Green Earrings

When asked what he missed most about Earth in an interview, besides friends and family, the astronaut Tim Peake replied that he missed the colour green, the fresh air and being outside. Peake's yearning for the nature is one thing that we can all easily take for granted when we're surrounded by it here on Earth, but what else has the colour green meant to different civilizations, across cultures and around the world?

Representing freshness, nature, youthfulness and positivity for centuries, there's nothing really bad to say about the colour green, except perhaps for its association with greed and jealousy, but that's a topic for another day.

When we think of green, we think of the countryside, in Japan, England and beyond; we imagine hedgehogs in our gardens, tweeting birds in the morning and we smell flowers! In a nutshell, we think about nature; and when we think of nature, we can't help but cast our thoughts to the poets and artists and writers who have based their life's works on nature. A haiku is a type of short-form poem that originated in Japan, which is traditionally made up of three lines and is an observation of fleeting moment involving nature. And if you're suddenly wondering how on earth we got from peridot earrings to astronauts and then to nature to poetry and back again, then trust us when we say that we have no idea either! So let us get back on point…
