Emerald Necklaces of the Century

Over the years and decades we have seen stars and celebrities flaunt breathtakingly beautiful jewels of all sorts, emeralds included among them. Emeralds look fabulous when set upon earrings, rings and bracelets, but there is something especially mesmerizing about emerald necklaces, since they are worn with such prominence. Let us explore some of the most exceptional emerald necklaces that have been worn over the last century.


Kim Kardashian


Though this socialite has never been more relevant than she is now, due to all the attention she has been receiving since giving birth, the Lorraine Schwartz emerald necklace she wore back in 2011 is simply timeless. The stunning and very impressive piece matched her emerald earrings, and complemented her dark complexion amazingly.


Angelina Jolie


The famous Ms. Jolie always seems to make it to mentions of emerald jewelry, because the two seem to go hand in hand. Though the exotic beauty has been seen wearing a variety of jewels, the green stones are what often come to mind when one thinks of her. The pair of emerald drop earrings, which she wore with her strapless black dress on the red carpet, is what most of us remember, but the actress also boasted a solitaire emerald pendant in the plunging neckline of her white blouse on another occasion.


Elizabeth Taylor


Elizabeth Taylor is an icon, if not the icon for beautiful jewels, since the late actress was passionate about jewelry and gemstones. Her famous Bulgari emerald and diamond necklace given to her by Richard Burton, represents this beloved star, as well as some of the most sensational emerald necklaces of all times.


Sofia Vergara


The 400-carat Lorraine Schwartz emerald necklace that the beautiful Sofia Vergara wore with emerald earrings and a green dress to the CFDA Awards was nothing short of remarkable. The talented actress looked quite happy wearing the necklace, claiming that every woman should have one just like it!


Amy Adams


This adorable and likeable actress made a daring fashion decision when she combined her blue sequined dress with an emerald pendant necklace. The simple platinum strand was doubled over and a large emerald hung from it. Aside from her emerald cuff bracelet, her other jewels were simple and she looked stunning.


Celine Dion


Now that the extremely talented singer is getting older, her fashion taste is becoming more tamed. Nevertheless, her choice of emerald necklace to go with her very low cut ivory dress was perfect. The very large emerald stone was placed in a pendant, which hung with great sophistication from Celine’s neck.


If only all of us would be able to own or wear such incredible jewels, and have the exquisite sense of style and taste to do it right! These divas are just some of the many goddesses who strutted their stuff in the marvelous green jewels.
