20th Anniversary Rings in Sterling Silver  

Why Emerald Is the Traditional 20-Year Anniversary Stone

Emerald became the designated 20th anniversary stone through jewelry trade associations in the early 20th century. The green color symbolizes renewal and growth, fitting for couples who have built twenty years together. Natural emeralds form in metamorphic rocks and pegmatites, with major deposits in Colombia, Zambia, and Brazil. Colombian stones tend toward a warmer green with yellow undertones, while Zambian emeralds often show cooler blue-green hues. Beyond emerald, this collection includes rings with complementary green stones like peridot and green onyx, plus designs featuring birthstones and other natural gems for those who prefer alternatives. Each ring is set in .925 sterling silver, an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver that balances durability with the white metal shine that pairs well with colored gemstones. SilverRush Style has sold natural stone jewelry since 2005. Browse by stone type, ring size, or price point to find a 20-year anniversary ring that fits your budget and style preferences.
