Your questions, answered
What colour is amethyst?
Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz, ranging from soft lilac to deep violet. It is the February birthstone.
What does amethyst mean?
Amethyst has long been linked with peace, clarity and sincerity, and it was a favourite of royalty for centuries.
Are your amethyst pieces real amethyst?
We use a mix of stones. Many pieces are set with amethyst CZ, the gold vermeil stud earrings feature natural amethyst, and raw styles have an uncut look, so each product page lists the exact stone.
Does amethyst suit gold or silver?
Both. Purple feels rich and warm in gold, and cooler and brighter in silver, so go with the metal they wear most.

Yes. Add luxury gift packaging at checkout for £5 and your piece comes in a gift bag with ribbon, along with a polishing cloth and a warranty card. Every order can also include a free gift note with your message.
