Amethyst, birthstone for February.
Amethyst is the clear purple, mauve or violet form of the mineral quartz.
Ancient belief held that anyone wearing an amethyst could not become intoxicated.
Amethyst is a very beautiful coloured stone; this is its best attribute.
The most favoured shade is the rich, deep violet colour and looks stunning set into items of jewellery both on its own or with other gemstones such as diamonds.
Because amethyst is available in high quantities, the prices tend to be quite low in comparison to other gemstones.
This allows people to use the stone for larger pieces of jewellery such as cocktail style dress rings, pendants and bracelets.
We have a selection of amethyst jewellery in store for you to view and offer a bespoke service for your own ideas.
