Pantone Colour of the Year

Cool, calm and effortlessly chic, this year’s Pantone Colour of the Year is Classic Blue. Evoking the dusky pallor of an evening sky, this regal colour hints at a return to more traditional styling. A reassuring, familiar blue, entrenched in our heritage but also indicative of being on the brink of a new era, the shade encourages us to take inspiration from the past, but reinterpret with new meaning and a fresh perspective.

One velvety gemstone which typically embodies this topical hue is sapphire. Set at the heart of one of the world’s most famous engagement rings, sapphire has long been the stone of choice amongst Britain’s royalty.

Varieties of tanzanite, topaz and dark aquamarine also give a stylish nod to the 2020 trend and make a striking focus for pendants and earrings as well as rings. The rich azure of these gemstones works beautifully against both warm or white gold and can be further enhanced with juxtaposing gemstones such as crystal clear diamonds or even more vibrant options.
