A fabulous pair of vintage amethyst drop earrings, fashioned in bright 9ct yellow gold, with rope edge borders encircling two teardrop amethysts. They weigh approx. 1.8ct each and exhibit a soft lavender hue that contrasts beautifully against the gold frames.
Amethyst’s regal purple-violet hue has been a favourite of kings and royalty throughout history and was said to provide clarity, protection, and wisdom to the wearer. Legend also links Saint Valentine to the stone, as he was said to have worn an amethyst ring carved with Cupid, making it the birthstone for February and a popular Valentine's gift as well.
Perfect for everyday wear or glamorous occasions, these dainty amethyst drop earrings are fitted with hook wires, allowing them to swing freely from the ear, effortlessly catching the light and the eye.
