Understanding This Piece
About Amethyst
Amethyst is purple quartz, ranging from pale lavender to deep royal purple. Brazil, Uruguay, and Zambia produce the highest-quality stones. Amethyst is hard enough for daily wear (7 on Mohs) and has been prized since antiquity — Greek and Roman tradition held that amethyst protected against intoxication, and it was historically reserved for royalty and clergy. Amethyst is the February birthstone and the 6th-anniversary gem, and offers the most vivid purple in fine jewelry at a relatively accessible price point.
About 14K Yellow Gold
14K yellow gold is 58.3% pure gold blended with copper and silver — the most popular fine-jewelry karat in the US for good reason. It delivers a rich, recognizably warm yellow tone while remaining hard enough for daily wear, holding diamonds and gemstones securely without wearing thin. 14K resizes cleanly and refinishes easily, and it carries strong heirloom value. For most clients balancing color depth, durability, and price, 14K yellow is the right answer.
