Amethyst Earrings

These stylish Amethyst earrings were made exclusively for Stone Mania and feature deep purple coloured Amethyst gemstones. 

Amethyst is a popular and well known gemstone variety which is fascinatingly translucent.  One of the most most highly sought after varieties of Quartz, its colour is quite delicate so excessive exposure to bright sunlight can result in it fading.  In fact when Amethyst is heat treated, it changes into Citrine.  Natural Citrine is quite rare hence many of the gems being sold on the market today, are actually heated Amethyst. 

Earring size including hook (cms): 5.1 x 1.1 
Weight of each earring (grams): 2.9
