Birthstone February; Amethyst

The February born shall find
Sincerity and peace of mind,
Freedom from passion and from care,
If they, the amethyst will wear.


Amethyst prevents intoxication; well that’s what the ancient Greeks believed!  They carved drinking vessels from amethyst in the belief that it would prevent them from getting drunk, worth a try?

Amethyst is known as the ancient healer of body, mind and spirit. It cleanses, purifies, restructures and renews. It is said to open spiritual and psychic centres, to reduce mental tension and to induce pleasant healing dreams.

Therefore wear to reduce anger, impatience and nightmares. Amethyst helps to prevent over-indulgence and encourages the breaking of bad habits.

The colour purple became associated with wealth and royalty, as purple materials were expensive due to the high cost of producing the dye.  Purple looks delicious when worn with any shade of lavender, olive, light grey or navy.  Not to mention shades of pink, and red for a bold contrast!

This aptly named ‘truly scrumptious’ bracelet brings together an irresistible mix of freshwater pearls and different shapes of amethyst to create this luxuriously tactile hand-made bracelet.

Small but perfectly formed these gorgeous Swarovski crystal earrings are created with carefully chosen colours clustered together for maximum effect.  Just fabulous when they shimmer as they catch the light!

Keep it simple with this beautiful natural amethyst pendant.  Perfect on it’s own but also a great starting necklace on which to add other gemstones or silver charms from our ‘Wish Upon a Charm’ collection.
