Dear friends,
This week we are looking at the February birthstone: amethyst! Amethyst is a variety of quartz that comes in every shade of purple, from a light lavender that appears almost clear, to a deep, rich, royal hue. The name "amethyst" comes from the Greek for "not intoxicated" and the stone is often associated with groundedness and tranquility. So let's take a look at some pieces of jewelry that not only look good, but will make you feel good too!
