Amethyst jewelry for the purple lover

I love the color purple so it should come as no surprise that amethyst jewelry is my favorite jewelry. My site: Purplebear's Jewelry features amethyst jewelry and loose amethysts along with other purple jewelry.

My science teacher would be happy to know I did remember some of what I was taught and I've learned a bit more, too. Amethyst is a purple type of quartz and reason for the color purple is due to it having more iron oxide than other quartz. Something I didn't remember is if heated it changes into citrine.

On my site I've included several interesting facts about amethysts but I'll share just a few with you here. One I tend to maybe not believe is that it has been thought that amethysts were to protect a person from becoming intoxicated. Another I do tend to believe is that purple is considered to be a very calming color and if you place a loose amethyst near your bed you will receive a peaceful night's sleep.

If any of you are the adventurous type there are several areas in the US where for as little as $25 a day you can try to find amethysts yourself. You can learn about the history and mining of these beautiful gemstones. If you're the crafty type or like me, just like creating things yourself, you might like taking some of the amethysts you may find and make your own amethyst jewelry.

If you love purple, amethyst jewelry is quite affordable and you can easily find amethyst bracelets, earrings, necklaces, pendants, rings and other types of amethyst jewelry set in white gold, yellow gold, two-tone gold, sterling silver and other metals.
