Greetings!  Express yourself! February 14th is the day when romantics everywhere convey their devotion by exchanging gifts of love. And when expressing tender feelings, nothing takes the place of a gift of fine jewelry! The ultimate symbol of love is diamonds. Given from the heart and worn with love in all shapes, sizes and colors, these precious gems continue to thrive year after year, just as your love for each other. |
| | February Birthstone: Purple Amethyst The gemstone amethyst is the birthstone for February. Amethyst is associated with spirituality, wisdom, sobriety, and security. The even-tempered amethyst, said to prevent drunkenness, also helps keep those born in February on an even keel. Amethyst is the purple variety of the mineral quartz and is a popular gemstone. Although it must always be purple to be amethyst, it can and does have a wide range of purple shades. Its color is unparalleled, and even other, more expensive purple gemstones are often compared to its color and beauty. If it were not for its widespread availability, amethyst would be very expensive. |
