Amethyst Floral Ring, 18KY

This fanciful ring showcases both the intricacies of metalwork, and how a ring is more than just a gemstone on a band. It is a work of art, where stone and metal harmonize to make an impact greater than each on it’s own.

The floral/leaf motif has been a longtime staple of Laurie Donovan designs, and can be applied to a variety of underlying styles, including our popular wrap ring. Shown here with a six prong setting cradling a 9mm, 2.5ct Amethyst with three .08ct diamonds, this ring is a stunning addition to any collection.

Amethyst is the violet or purple variety of quartz. It is a precious stone of spiritual protection and purification. It is thought of as a natural tranquilizer that relieves stress, soothes irritability, balances mood swings, dispels anger, rage, fear and anxiety. Amethyst is an excellent crystal for creative people because it helps them remain calm, focused, and receptive to any unusual ideas.

Amethyst, February Birthstone

Did you know that amethyst is a meditative and calming stone? It works in the emotional, spiritual, and physical planes to promote calm, balance, and peace.

Did you know that amethyst is used in crystal healing to help heal personal losses and grief?

Did you know that amethyst is known as the sobriety stone and used by the ancient Greeks to prevent drunkenness? As such it assists in getting rid of addictions to alcohol, drugs, smoking, and other destructive compulsive behaviors.

Given all these attributes it’s understandable why amethyst is so popular. We have two more; it’s beautiful and it’s affordable.

Pictured above is our Ametrine Necklace. Ametrine is sometimes called the “Golden Amethyst” and is a combination of purple and yellow/orange tones. “Ametrine” is a portmanteau of amethyst and citrine, another member of the quartz family
