✶ Stone notes

Green stones

Sage, olive, moss and the blue-greens — the colour people ask for when they want to feel like they have been outside.

Green is the colour that comes back to the bench most often, partly because it is the one people ask for most. It sits between warm and cool, so it works against copper-tone wire and silver-tone wire both, and it does not argue with denim, which is what most of these end up being worn with.

The greens worth wrapping are rarely one green. Sage with moss pushed through it, olive with a yellow edge, a blue-green that reads differently indoors than it does in the sun. That unevenness is the reason to wear a piece of stone rather than a bead off a card — two slices of the same material never land the same way, so the piece you get is the only one that looks like that.

Green tends to get bought for practical days. Not an occasion colour, not a statement one: the piece you put on before you go and do something.

This page describes colour and form and doesn't name a stone. Here's why that is, and the rest of the notes are there too.
