35th Anniversary
gemstone: Emerald.
Thirty-five years — emerald, the green between pearl and ruby
Quick answer
The 35th anniversary gemstone is Emerald. The 35th anniversary gemstone is the emerald — though this year carries a second, older name: coral and jade are its traditional gifts, and some lists call thirty-five the jade jubilee. Either way the color of the year is green, the shade of things that keep growing. Thirty-five sits exactly between the pearl and the ruby, and emerald is the gem that holds that middle: rarer than the pearl, softer-spoken than the ruby, and greener than both.

35th anniversary FAQ
What is the gemstone for the 35th anniversary?
The 35th anniversary gemstone is the emerald. Coral and jade are the traditional thirty-fifth gifts (some lists call it the jade jubilee); emerald is the assigned gemstone — the same deep green, in the precious-stone register.
Is emerald too expensive for a 35th anniversary gift?
Fine emerald is among the priciest colored gems — but the year does not require it. Jade is the traditional alternative at gentler prices, and peridot delivers true green at a fraction of emerald cost. The thirty-fifth is about the color of endurance, not the invoice.
