History and origin of the amethyst

Amethyst is a variety of quartz and has been used in jewelry making for thousands of years. Even in ancient times, it was considered a particularly valuable stone. The name "amethyst" is derived from the Greek and means "not drunk", as it was believed that the stone protected against drunkenness. Today, amethyst is mined worldwide, with Brazil and Uruguay among the largest suppliers.

Formation and natural properties

Amethyst is formed in volcanic rocks, where silicon dioxide crystallizes over millions of years. Amethyst gets its typical violet color from iron impurities and the effects of radiation during crystal formation. The stone has a Mohs hardness of 7, which makes it robust and resistant for everyday use. In these hoop earrings, the amethysts show their natural, unpolished form, which gives the piece of jewelry a special rawness and authenticity.

Scientific composition and spiritual significance

Amethyst consists mainly of silicon dioxide. Spiritually, it is often associated with calm, clarity and protection. In crystal healing, it is said to promote mental alertness and bring inner balance. However, these spiritual effects have not been scientifically proven.

Care and maintenance

To preserve the beauty of your creole earrings with four amethysts, silver-plated 925, you should clean them regularly with a soft cloth and avoid contact with water, perfume or chemicals to protect the silver and the amethysts. As the stones are raw and unpolished, they should also be handled with care to avoid scratching.

Packaging and presentation

These earrings are delivered in elegant packaging, either in a cotton bag or a leather box wrapped in tissue paper and packed in an environmentally friendly cardboard box. All packaging materials are sustainable, so you can enjoy your piece of jewelry with a clear conscience.
