2022 Pantone Color of the Year “Very Peri” Gift Ideas

For more than two decades the Pantone Color Institute has painted the cultural landscape with their vision of the future with their “Color of the Year” designation. The spotlight for this year is on periwinkle as the motivation behind the highly anticipated Pantone Color of the Year, “Very Peri” (17-3938). This whimsical shade evokes swirling blue skies and lavender dreams with a tranquil yet renewing energy. What makes Very Peri so special is that it was the first time the Pantone team endeavored to create a new color for this annual selection. Very Peri celebrates a changing world that’s become increasingly more a digital planet. At Oster Jewelers we have envisioned this carefree color into an inspiring collection of delicate dangles, beaded bracelets, and an out of the box wristwatch to carry you into 2022 with style.

Set in 18k yellow gold, these Laura Bezeled Dangles by ILA (left) impress with pristine purple amethyst and generous drops of tanzanite. Known as a stone of optimism, tanzanite is thought to possess the ability to transform negative thoughts into positive ones. Wear them with this gorgeous Iolite Beaded Necklace (right) by Anne Sportun that showcases the softer side of Very Peri along a delicate yellow gold chain.



The Classic Wrap, shown here in the rich purples and blues of Iolite, can be tied around a wrist casually or draped around the neck bringing a pop of color to your everyday looks. This classic beaded accessory by Anne Sportun is a versatile piece that’s a must have for every jewelry collection.




Evoking the violet shades of Very Peri, the Tetra Plum by NOMOS thinks outside the typical round case shape of the watch world with its bold square face. Slender on the wrist, the Tetra is powered by the manual DUW 4301 caliber with a power reserve indicator on the dial reminding the wearer when it’s time to wind.

Periwinkle Gemstones fantasy abounds in 18k yellow gold with this delicate take on a Lariat Style Necklace. Dreamy Iolite beads are strung together with a hanging gold chain tassel on this stunning Anne Sportun piece. Wear it with these anything but conventional Skull Earrings, by Melinda Risk. Petite and playful, these dangles dazzle with tanzanite drops and sterling silver lotus flowers set in a mix of 22k and 18k yellow gold. Exquisite detailing and a penchant for Victorian era design and technique bring Melinda Risk’s handmade creations to life. Each piece is a one of a kind work of art.
