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 18K Rose Gold
18K rose gold combines 75% pure gold with a refined copper alloy, producing the softest and most luxurious pink tone available in karat gold. The high gold content gives 18K rose a more muted, sophisticated pink than 14K — closer to dusty peach than vivid copper. It carries the highest heirloom value of any rose gold and is the preferred choice for premium custom engagement rings and statement pieces where color refinement matters most.
