Amethyst is a beautiful stone that has a very
long and deep history.
Amethyst has been worn by royalty and various
religious figures for hundreds of years.
Ancient mythology even claims it was used as a
protection against misfortune and evil spirits.
Amethyst is today enjoyed by many people as
both occasional and every day jewelry due to
its beauty and resilience.
Amethyst is the birthstone for February and
makes a thoughtful gift that can be found in
earrings, pendants, rings, and many other types
of jewelry because its toughness allows jewelers
to be a little more daring with choice of mounts.
