Emeralds

The Diamond Studio isn't just diamonds. Along with sapphires we have also begun designing some beautiful new pieces with emerald, a deep green stone with a rich exuberant colour which adds character and style to any piece.

The emerald has long been associated with glamour and timeless good taste. The oldest emerald mine is Cleopatra's mine, which dates back to 2000 BC- although the oldest emerald is though to date back to Babylonian times (4000 BC). The mine is located near Cairo, and named after this infamous femme-fatale owing to her love of the stone. This beautiful mineral was also a favourite of Hollywood starlet Marlene Dietrich, and the icon of classic style, Jackie O. It's therefore no coincidence then that the Beryl family of gemstones, to which the emerald belongs, has long been believed to increase the wearers attractiveness to the opposite sex and promote love.

The emerald is incredibly rare, and carat for carat is more valuable than the diamond. In Paganism, green is considered a colour of prosperity. This has made it a favourite to the upper echelons of society, as a strong status symbol. Due to this, the emerald was a central stone in the Russian crown jewels.

Emerald is also the birthstone for May, and is associated with the star signs Taurus, Cancer and Gemini.

We have some gorgeous emeralds in stock just now, feel free to pop into The Diamond Studio for a look. We have a stone to suit your style and budget, sourcing and designing our pieces to suit your exact specifications.So whether you are looking for an elegant gift, or an unusual jewellery piece, we can help.

The Diamond Studio: Jeweller to The Old Firm

The Old Firm is the term given to Glasgow football clubs Celtic F.C. and Rangers F.C when named collectively. The two clubs are the most successful in Scotland, with large support bases in Glasgow, and with more support in most towns throughout Scotland, as well as additional support from around the world.


Glasgow is known for its infamous rivalry between football clubs Rangers F.C. and Celtic F.C. The two historic clubs represent Glasgow football culture and are a huge asset to the city.

The Diamond Studio proudly announced a Celtic jewellery collection known as The Bhoys Collection, late last year. This range has proved very popular and has gone down a treat with Celtic fans and players alike.

This week, The Diamond Studio had more excitement in store as a long awaited licensing contract with Rangers was signed this week, also a premier jewellery collection for the club.

The range will be named "Spirit of '72", in honour of the clubs formation in 1872, and the winning of the European Cup Winners Cup, which was claimed by the club in 1972.

We are delighted by this exciting development which allows us to collaborate with both sides of the Old Firm. It is a tremendous honour, and shows our continued commitment to the football community.

We hope to announce more details of the collection soon, and Gers fan will have to stay tuned for updates!

It's official, The Diamond Studio is the Jeweller to The Old Firm!
