Amethyst Gold Drop Earrings

Hold one of these stones up to the light and you'll see a small night sky. Deep violet fades into pale white veils, streaks, and drifting zones, and no two stones are painted the same way. Each rectangular drop is faceted amethyst, framed by a slightly hammered, copper base rim 24k gold electroplated. 

Amethyst is quartz, colored purple by traces of iron within its crystal lattice and by natural radiation during its formation. That is why the color can deepen and soften from band to band inside a single stone. We think of it as a natural resonator: a structure shaped slowly over time, now worn as a reminder to meet your day with a steady, clear mind. The name comes from the Greek "amethystos," roughly "not intoxicated," and the ancient Greeks linked the stone with clear-headedness. Many people reach for amethyst in moments of meditation, ritual, or simply a pause in a busy day.

The matching studs are round faceted amethyst set in a gold bezel, so the pair feels complete from ear to drop. These are statement earrings with a calm kind of intensity. They are easy to wear with everything from linen and denim to an evening dress.

Amethyst is the traditional February birthstone and is often associated with Aquarius, which makes this pair a thoughtful choice for a birthday, a best friend, or anyone who simply loves purple.
