Hanukkah Gift Ideas: Amethyst Stud Jewelry by Ji Hwang

Gemvara amethyst stud jewelry are a classic that you'll wear your whole life. Every pair of our stud earrings is made to order in your choice of gems and precious metals. Most jewelry manufacturers compromise on the quality of the gems they select for earrings, choosing a lower quality than gems for rings. They'll even tell you that quality doesn't matter for earrings because you can't see them while you are wearing them. At Gemvara, we hand select each gem for your amethyst stud jewelry using the same care and quality standards as we use for our gorgeous gemstone rings. Pairs are perfectly matched for maximum impact. We think classics like amethyst stud jewelry should be the same investment quality as all your beautiful jewelry, a quality you'll be proud to wear. Amethyst shimmers with a deep purple hue. Our inspired gift ideas with a personal touch will make this Hanukkah memorable. Gemvara's fine quality amethyst stud jewelry are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

The gem of peace and sobriety, the name "amethyst" comes from a Greek the word meaning "not drunken." According to the ancient Greeks, this wine-colored gem had the power to keep you sober. Amethyst is often used in religious settings as a symbol of piety and celibacy. Tibetan Buddhists meditate using amethyst rosaries to calm the mind and Bishop's rings often feature an amethyst. Color is the most important element in amethyst quality: the more vibrant and bright the lavender purple hue, the more valuable the amethyst. Gemvara's amethyst is a rich purple that complements both warm and cool colors. A well-cut amethyst is also important because the right cut will maximize the color and well as allow the amethyst to sparkle in the light. Amethyst is the February birthstone and the 6th and 17th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality amethyst will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine amethyst jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
