Pantone's colour of 2013

Pantone have given their annual trend forecast for the colour that will dominate our year as....drum roll please.....Emerald 17-5641. This beautiful fresh colour brings to mind luscious plants, sparkling jewellery and energetic interiors.

Describing the colour of the year Pantone's Colour Institute executive director Leatrice Eiseman says that it is "The most abundant hue in nature, the human eye sees more green than any other colour in the spectrum... Symbolically, Emerald brings a sense of clarity, renewal and rejuvenation, which is so important in today's complex world. This powerful and universally-appealing tone translates easily to both fashion and home interiors."

No other colour has such a rejuvenating power as green hues do so we can't wait to get our wardrobes and homes dazzling in Emerald tones.

Here are a few of our current favourite jewel toned products to get you a head start - 

Alex Monroe Peacock earrings 

Catherine Weitzman emerald rondelle necklace 

The adventures of Tintin - The Castafiore Emerald book

Nixon Time Teller watch in Glo Green 

Head Gardener badge from Wild & Wolf

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Literary Transport mug from Wild & Wolf

Series 746 1960's design telephone in green and cream

Type 1228 Anglepoise lamp

Lego storage brick in dark green

Ted Baker boxed tweed print roller-ball pen
