Are you looking for jewelry with white stones? Here are four suggestions for natural white stones.

OPAL

Opal can come in many different colors, but white precious opals with their characteristic play of colors are very popular in jewelry. Opal differs from most stones in that it not only has a base color, but also iridesces in other colors.

PEARL

A pearl is not actually a stone, but a creation of a mollusk, but for simplicity's sake, we include it in this classification. Pearls can come in a wide variety of colors. There are white, cream, yellow, pink, silver, blue, green, brown, gray, and even black pearls. The classic pearls are white and perfectly round. In addition to their basic color, pearls can also have a luster in a different shade and color. We have written more about pearls here.

KORAL

Coral is also not a stone, but the skeleton of corals, i.e., small marine animals that form coral reefs. Corals are usually associated with a characteristic shade of red (coral), but there are also white, pink, red, purple, blue, black, and even gold corals. We wrote more about corals in this post.

AMBER

Amber is also not a stone, but international law recognizes it as a gemstone. Amber is fossilized tree resin from over 40 million years ago. Traditionally, we associate amber with the color amber (yellow-orange), but there are also beautiful white amber stones. We wrote more about amber here.
