Amethyst Earrings | Aquarius Gift | Faceted 10mm Circle | Sterling Silver

Small, faceted, and set with minimal silver around each stone, these 10mm circular amethyst earrings are perfect for people who want the gemstone itself to be the focus rather than an elaborate setting. As the amethyst is faceted they pick up light differently depending on how you're standing.

Some interesting Amethyst facts

• Amethyst sits at 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, which is tough enough to wear regularly without the surface dulling or scratching the way softer stones can.
• It's the birthstone for February, the zodiac stone for Aquarius, and the traditional gemstone associated with a 6th and 33rd wedding anniversary, so these work as well for an anniversary gift as they do for a birthday.
• Amethyst also has a long documented history in jewellery: Egyptian craftsmen carved it into scarabs and seals thousands of years ago, valuing it as much for its workability as its colour.
