Earrings with amethyst

Amethyst is a gemstone that belongs to the quartz group. In Russia, it was called the bishop's stone, associated with the name of the Apostle Matthew, an evangelist and Christian enlightener. There are parables about the energy properties of the radiant mineral.

It is believed that this strong conductor of positive energy will maintain peace of mind and give its owner wisdom for many years to come.

Therefore, products with amethyst can be just as impressive. Amethysts, as a rule, are almost transparent; foreign inclusions are not allowed in samples used for making jewelry. To distinguish a natural stone from a fake, hold it up to bright sunlight. You will be able to distinguish color zones separated by the so-called "tiger stripes" - small cracked cavities filled with liquid.

Earrings with amethyst are a fashionable decoration, spectacular and elite. The rich color suits women of all ages, especially sophisticated connoisseurs and mature fashionistas. Elegant earrings with a purple stone in gold are universal, they look great in products in the form of flowers and twigs, mysterious stars and chandelier-shaped earrings. They can liven up both a formal business suit and evening attire. Original earrings made of gold framing pure amethyst can be a valuable find for a jewelry collection.

Amethyst is combined with many noble non-ferrous metals and other precious stones. Beautiful designer finds look especially sophisticated if the following perform in a duet with amethyst:

• Red gold. Luxurious in color, the metal, shading the depth and richness of the stone, is perfect for amethyst. Jewelers know that combinations of gold with a red tint and dark types of amethyst will be the most advantageous. Earrings with very large natural red gold stones for an evening out are very popular among the stars due to their extraordinary beauty.

White gold. This kind of noble metal has its charm both separately and in combination with yellow gold. For light and soft shades of amethyst, a metal with a white sheen will suit perfectly, a cold shade will appeal to those fashionistas who prefer white to gold to yellow or red.

• Diamonds and cubic zirconia. Marilyn Monroe's phrase about diamonds, girls' best friends, has become winged. But not only diamonds are able to amaze. The same can be said about amethysts with certainty. Luxury is the most correct definition for earrings with a large amethyst surrounded by a scattering of small diamonds. There is always a place for classics in collections, especially when you consider that a jewel of this level can be inherited.For an artificial diamond - cubic zirconia - there is a niche in a number of fashionable products with amethyst. Combined earrings will be appreciated by lovers of inexpensive but spectacular jewelry. Often in products, a scattering of cubic zirkonia frames a large, originally faceted amethyst. For earrings with three types of stones, a particularly complex shape is chosen, including a large number of beautifully processed stones with amazing brilliance.

Special mention deserves gold earrings with green amethyst obtained by artificial means. The heat-treated greenish praseolite, as it is also called, looks no less attractive than its natural counterpart, differing in a more affordable price.

Silver has long been considered a value, silver bars measured the value of any product in the history of Russia. Silver elements, due to their purity and beneficial properties, have been used to make breakthroughs in the natural sciences, medicine, and electronics.

But this metal was most widely used in the jewelry industry as a favorite brainchild of craftsmen. Silver is malleable, it is quite soft and strong at the same time, so this noble metal can be processed in various ways.

The cold beauty of silver complements the mystique of the precious mineral. They can serve as an excellent addition to a light dress, a romantic ensemble consisting of a skirt or trousers and a blouse.

The most popular are models of silver earrings with amethysts, which are a scattering of stones or small diamonds, delicate flowers with leaves. Evening earrings are more massive, complemented by graceful elongated pendants.Silver earrings with natural amethyst are an excellent gift and an example of good taste. For white and blackened silver, it is best to use stones of pinkish shades, pure water.

Beautiful earrings will suit all types of female appearance without exception. Lighter shades of stone and green amethyst in earrings will decorate a blonde. For brunettes and brown-haired women with dark skin, amethyst can be a unique gift that can make the owner of earrings the center of attention in male society. If the shape of the girl's face is closer to round or oval, medium-sized earrings in the form of studs, clip-on earrings or flowers will suit her. For an elongated face shape, earrings are more massive and with pendants that are in harmony with the color of the eyes.

Elegant earrings for every taste are worn with clothes of predominantly dark and pastel colors, acting on the principle of choosing a close or, conversely, very contrasting tone.

The noble purple mineral in itself is the trendsetter of the created style.

Natural amethyst is considered an expensive stone, the price of which starts at several thousand rubles. Some of the quality species tend to change color. Amethysts are mined in deposits, some of which are located on the territory of Armenia. From there, they mainly bring natural amethysts for products.

Take a knife with a steel blade for this purpose and be sure that the natural mineral will stand this test. Nothing will remain on solid natural amethyst. But the glass instead of the precious stone will be seriously damaged, and it will lose its appearance completely.

It is worth doubting the naturalness of amethyst, which is painted completely in one color, absolutely evenly. A stone that is too saturated in color should be put in a glass of water - in a real amethyst, the color will fade a little due to the refraction of light in the aquatic environment.

Amethyst is best cleansed with mild soap and warm water. Never use chemicals or strong detergents. From time to time, you can substitute a stone under a stream of cold water to remove the accumulated energy - experts say so. If the stone has not been cleaned for a long time, you can take it to a jewelry workshop and sonicate it to perfect condition.

Refined amethyst does not like exposure to high temperatures, and direct sunlight can make it turn pale and burn out. Therefore, the mineral is especially carefully protected from the latter, they put the box with the decoration in a dark place.

It is supposed to store items with amethysts in a closed box, protecting them from damage, since other stones, when in contact, can scratch them with sharp edges. The walls of the box or box should be upholstered with material, and the product itself should rest on a special pillow. Compliance with all these simple requirements will allow you to keep your favorite amethyst earrings in excellent condition.
