FAQ
Are these real gemstones?
Yes. Most photographs come from the Smithsonian's Open Access collection (public domain; Swell Scenes is not affiliated). The emerald is a public-domain photograph from Wikimedia Commons, and April's diamond comes from a 1932 photograph in the Dutch National Archive, so it appears in black and white.
Why is June a moonstone?
June has three traditional birthstones: pearl, moonstone and alexandrite. We show moonstone and note pearl beneath it.

We currently offer a curated range of standard sizes and frame colors to ensure perfect quality and fit. If you need a specific size, reach out — we may be able to help.
Will the colors look the same in person?
Yes, but slight variations can occur due to monitor calibration and lighting. Each print is color-checked before shipping to match the artist’s original design.

All Swell Scenes artwork is printed and framed in the U.S. using trusted print partners who specialize in fine art reproduction.
What is Acrylite and why do you use it?
