The Allure of Amethyst

Amethyst is a stunning purple gemstone that has captivated people for centuries. It ranges in color from light lilac to deep violet, making it a versatile stone for various jewelry designs. At Sunbird Jewelry, we feature Amethyst in a unique star-cut shape, which is both pretty and unusual, adding an extra touch of elegance to our pieces.

Historical Significance

Amethyst derives its name from the Greek word "metho," which means intoxicate. The ancient Greeks believed that Amethyst could ward off drunkenness and hangovers. They often wore Amethyst jewelry or used Amethyst-studded goblets while drinking wine to prevent intoxication. This makes amethyst earrings perfect for wearing during wine nights or cocktail parties.
