Charoite I Love This Gemstone

If you love purple gemstones, and stones that have lots of mythic and lore, then Charoite might be for you. Watch the video to see the magical stone called Charoite. The video is not the greatest quality, but she gives great info about Charoite.

Healing Properties Of Amethyst

A lot of people love the color purple. Since there are so many variations to the color purple, it is hard to say just one single hue of purple is the best. However the dark purple Amethyst is the most prized in the gemstone collecting world. It is thought to be the color of royalty, bringing power and strength. The video below will share the healing properties of those that wear Amethyst. A lot of gemstones, especially in the quartz family like Amethyst, are thought to hold healing elements to anyone that wears it. Amethyst can be both a feminine and masculine gemstone, and is the traditional birthstone for those born in the month of February.

Amethyst The Royal Birthstone

Amethyst is the birthstone for February, and very often worn by royalty. Check out the video below, about Amethyst.

Rose De France Amethyst

Did you know Amethyst comes in a purplish pink color. It is referred to as Rose De France Amethyst, and is a lovely purple color, with pink hues to it. I believe that is what this gemstone is. There is also something called color change Amethyst, which I just recently read about, but have never seen one in person. Like all Amethyst, it is a member of the Quartz family, natural in color, and has a hardness of about 7 on the Moh's hardness scale. Purple is a color of royalty, one of the reasons Amethyst is one of the most popular gemstones on the market. It is affordable, and can be found in large quantities all over the world. I prefer this color of Amethyst over the deeper, darker purple Amethyst. However, everyone has their own taste, and jewelry should be purchased for the way it makes you feel when you wear it. This sterling silver ring, is a size 5, and is available for sale through this blog for the price of 24.99 USA buyers only, payment with paypal.
