FAQs

Amethyst has been favoured in fine jewellery creation since antiquity, gaining significant popularity during the Georgian and Victorian eras when purple gemstones were associated with status and elegance.

These earrings feature solid 9ct gold mountings with stud posts that connect via articulated links to claw-set or bezel-set facet-cut amethyst gemstones, allowing subtle movement.

Authentic pieces generally bear hallmark stamps indicating gold purity, such as 375 or 9ct, alongside characteristic natural tone variations within the cut amethyst gemstones.

The rich purple hue of amethyst provides a colour contrast against neutral outfits, framing the face when worn with both formal attire and casual wear.

Clean gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth or brush, ensuring the gemstones are stored away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals to maintain their surface condition.
