February birthday girls love receiving their fabulous purple birthstone, amethyst, as a gift. Whether it’s a pale lilac or a deep violet purple, amethyst is a gem that everybody wants in their jewelry box.

Quality amethyst, either the lighter colors from Brazil, or the deeper tones from mines in Africa, display incredible richness of color and dazzle when they are gem cut. Take one of our huge oval checkerboard brilliant-cut pendants. These Brazilian stones are so clear you can see through them, but the painstaking gem cuts give it plenty of glitter. Our step-cut amethyst earrings shows off the brilliance of the gems as well.Amethyst also makes a gorgeous cabochon.

The purple African amethyst, when it’s just polished, makes an incredible solitaire, like in our rings, or as beads in our earrings and necklaces. Our deep blue-violet African amethyst cabochon pendant have deep, saturated color!

Amethyst is a popular stone in rainbow multi-gem pieces. You’ll find floral bracelet with amethyst paired with peridot, citrine and garnet.  Rainbow gemstone pieces are so wearable because you can mix them with different types of gemstone jewelry, and the clothing options are endless!

What if your February girl has a drawer full of amethyst already?  Give her a stunning piece with rough-cut amethyst or amethyst paired with a bright blue-green turquoise in a gemstone belt buckle!
