About Birthstone Jewelry
February Birthstone: Amethyst
Because of its regal purple hue, amethyst has long been a favorite of kings, queens, and other nobles. While it signifies wealth and strength, amethyst is also a symbol of soberness, tranquility, and wisdom.
History of BirthstonesChances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.

This review is from: Sterling Silver Celtic Knot Blue Topaz Linear Drop Earrings (Jewelry)
These earrings aren't as big as the photo makes them out to be; only about an inch from the top of the trinity design to the bottom- they're the perfect size, in my opinion. They're noticeable yet dainty. The stones are pale blue and match just about any outfit I'd want to pair them with. I really love wearing these!

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Sterling Silver Celtic Knot Blue Topaz Linear Drop Earrings (Jewelry)
First, I have to say I really don't get why people are giving these low reviews for being only about an inch long. The 'product details' section clearly states that they are 1 1/4 inches long. Am I really the only person who ever pays attention to that? Anyway, I think these are great earring, nice and small, well made. I agree that the hooks are slightly more open than on most earrings, but I haven't found that to be a problem.

This review is from: Sterling Silver Celtic Knot Amethyst Linear Drop Earrings (Jewelry)
The item specifications show the earring length as 1.4 inches and this is true, but keep in mind that's from the top of the hook to the bottom. The actual dangly part is more along the lines of 1 inch. They look thicker in the image for some reason, or more luxurious I guess but they're not too bad in person. Last gripe: the amethysts are not nearly as purple-y as the picture shows, and it was a gift for somebody that loves purple so that was kind of important. The knotwork really shines, and I doubt if anybody cares since its such a trifling detail, but the knots on each earring mirror each other instead of two copies of the same knot. What I really liked is they not only came in the cute little 'sueded cloth' drawstring pouch, but also a box with a lid which made it less of a pain to wrap up, since no gift wrapping is available. Not too heavy, not too light, and arrived right on time! Wheee!
