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.

Color Name:Green-Amethyst| Metal Type:white-gold|Amazon Verified Purchase
The color of these is a very watery pale green and I like them a lot. You can't really tell that they are green when you are wearing them unless the light hits them just so. They are much paler than the photo, but it is a nicely matched hint of green rather than a fake looking, over-done green.
These are well mounted, and all the stones have a nice cut, very sparkly, plenty of movement and easily catch the light. The earrings are not too heavy or drag down your earlobe or tip over at a weird angle on your ear. They dangle at a nice distance below your ear, not too long... very classic look.
I have metal allergies and these earring did not break me out one bit when I wore them.
I will be replacing the back - it seems kind of wimpy to me and I like a more secure feeling back.
I would give them 5 stars if they had just a tiny touch deeper green and had a better back. But that is a personal preference and does not reflect on the quality of the product. They are a good value for this price.

Color Name:Smoky-Quartz|Metal Type:yellow-gold
OMG, when I saw the photograph of these earrings, I said, "I just gotta have those!" The rich, dark brown color looked so gorgeous on the product page, I practically drooled, imagining them adorning my ears. ... And did I have the perfect outfits to match!
When I received them, I wasn't disappointed. They ARE gorgeous--sparkly, clear, and ever so stylish. I like the way the radiant, smoky topaz gems catch the light as they dangle so gently. Swaying back and forth in a rhythm of their own, they catch the light, sending forth brilliant flashes of gold. And with not one, but three different cuts--princess, round, and pear shapes--set in 14k gold, they're absolutely stunning.
Another thing I like about them is that they complement the brown garments in my wardrobe as well as the blacks and neutrals.
The price didn't quite fit my budget, but they're worth every penny I spent ... even if it means a few less books this month. Oh, well ...

...These earrings are very beautiful, but too small for an adult--they are child-size. I returned them for this reason. (Amazon: you should consider posting an actual-size photo for all jewelry.)

It's hard to review jewelry so I'll just say it's very pretty. The gems are on the small size. 3 carats spread across 6 stones gives you some relatively small stones. Read more

Bought these to wear to my son's wedding. Now I end up wearing them all the time. They don't hang down too far (I have a short neck) and they look great.
