The airy purple of these studs will make you feel like you're watching a warm Belize sunset with the scent of lavender in the air. A member of the quartz family, amethyst has represented power since ancient times.

A February birthstone, amethyst was held in reverence by the Greeks, who believed drinking from an amethyst goblet prevented drunkenness.

Not content with just royalty and alcohol, it's also one of the gems of the breastplate of the Hebrew High Priest and was placed in the foundation of the New Jerusalem. Celebrities like Elizabeth Taylor, Zoe Saldana, and Sofia Vergara lay claim to modern royalty status with amethyst jewelry.

Amethyst is mined all over the world and ranges from pale, almost pinkish purple to rich, royal purple. Often, African amethyst tends towards deep and dark while Brazilian has a softer hue.
