2012 October 24
Pantone has released it’s color forecast for Spring 2013. While 2 blues are at the top, Monaco Blue and Dusk Blue, it is dominated by 3 greens, Emerald, Grayed Jade and Tender Shoots. For the most part it’s a soft palette, with Monaco Blue and Poppy Red being the bold entries.
Here’s a roundup of semi-precious beads and gemstones to look for that match these colors:
 |  Sodalite |  Iolite |
 |  Chalcedony |  London Topaz |
 |  Teal Zircon |  Apatite |
 |  Beryl |  Cat's Eye Aquamarine |
 |  Rose Quartz |  Rhodochrosite |
 |  Sponge Coral |  Red Jasper |
 |  Agate |  Lavender Jasper |
 |  Idocrase |  Chrome Tourmaline |
 |  Chrysoberyl |  Citrine |
 |  Coral |  Sunstone |
Overall I like the choices. I am fond of many of the semi-precious beads and gemstones that I found. It seems like a refreshing choice of colors for spring.
