At Kaari, every gemstone is chosen with intention. Our collections are designed around stones that carry depth, symbolism, and a visual language powerful enough to define our brand. Among these, three gemstones stand at the heart of our signature creations: Rubies, Emeralds, and Black Spinel.
These stones, rich in color and history, bring a unique emotional palette to Kaari’s designs - bold, modern, and deeply personal.
Below, we take you behind the craftsmanship, symbolism, and character of each gem.
Ruby: The Jewel of Passion & Power

Emerald: The Stone of Renewal & Creativity
Why Emerald?
Emeralds are timeless. Their green hue, calm yet deeply powerful, makes them one of the most expressive gemstones in fine and demi-fine jewelry. Each emerald carries its own fingerprint of inclusions, giving it character and soul.

Black Spinel: The Stone of Strength & Modern Elegance

Ruby — bold emotion

Emerald — thoughtful balance

Black Spinel — modern edge
Together, they allow us to create collections that feel cohesive yet expressive, pieces that can be worn alone or layered as a personal narrative.
These gemstones aren’t just decorative elements. They are a celebration of color, craftsmanship, and the stories we choose to carry with us.
