February Birthstone Amethyst Jewelry
While it may seem that we just popped open bottles of champagne to ring in the New Year, we are already on month two. The beginning of a new month means a new birthstone to highlight and February’s birthstone is a beauty–amethyst. This striking purple gemstone has been a favorite in jewelry making since antiquity. In fact, there have been examples of ancient amethyst dating back as early as 2000 BC.
The ancient Greeks choose to wear amethyst for protection against evil thoughts, dark magic, and homesickness. And since the color purple has long been associated with royalty, amethyst gemstones are often found in royal crown jewels. So if February is your birthstone, treat yourself to some amethyst birthstone jewelry fit for a queen! The good news is, while it is regarded as special enough for royalty, amethyst jewelry is relatively affordable compared to other precious gems. Here are some of our favorite February birthstone amethyst jewelry right now.
