During the 18th Century, the 17th March was made into a special feast day and is actively celebrated by the Catholic Church, as well as the Anglican Communion and others. In Ireland, the day is an official holiday but is also celebrated all around the world. The vibrant bars, public parades and vivid green decorations have all become traditions in celebrating St Paddy’s Day with loved ones and family.

Clovers and banners are often used to decorate homes, whether throwing your own party or hopping on a zoom call with family and friends. Leprechaun outfits and special green-inspired cocktails are also a popualr way to mark the occasion, but have you ever considered an elegant piece of green jewellery? Whether you’re planning on gifting a piece of jewellery to an Irish fiend or family member, or looking to treat yourself with a statement piece for your celebratory plans this March - we’ve curated a list of stunning designs from our Bloom jewellery collection here at C W Sellors to help inspire you.
Green Malachite Jewellery
Green Malachite was being mined as early as 4,000 BC in Egypt. The material has been used for its pigment in paintings and makeup over the centuries. The Victorians also loved the coloured stone, crafting it into their eye-catching jewellery designs. Today, there are many ways to wear Malachite jewellery. Known as an emotional healer, it can be worn in necklaces, earrings and rings among many other ways. The designs from our Bloom collection offer a variety of different designs crafted from sterling silver, 18ct rose gold and 9ct yellow gold.
