I love amethyst. Yes the real gemstones are lovely – but you know, my budget isn’t always prepared for precious gemstones. But beautiful faceted glass gems? They are so afforable and definitely on my personal favorites list! Take a look at this jewelry design idea, just for example:
Yes, these are jewelry components available in my shop. I will add right up front that they will not be hard to find in many places, especially online. But I will also add that I try hard to offer excellent quality stones – I really focus on not sending the ones with scratches and nicks, and the colors are as close to reality as possible on my monitor (yes I know monitors vary, but we do what we can!) I try to send the best!
Actually I am thinking about adding a “scratch and dent” category for those stones that still look good but defintely are not “best”. If you have any opinions about that idea I’d love to hear them!
PS And you probably remember that amethyst purple is the birthstone color for February. Yes, there’s still time to make some fabulous jewelry gifts for your birthday girls!
