The Best ways to Add Amethyst Meaning & Benefits
1. Repurpose Amethyst Jewelry:
If you have some old jewelry with Amethysts around that you no longer wear or inherited, you can update into a new style or mix it with other old stones you may have.
Amethysts are great for mixing and matching with other semi-precious stones or other shades of purple.
A client of mine had amethyst and diamond jewelry that was given to her during her marriage.
She hardly ever wore it because it really wasn't her style.
After her divorce, she wanted to transform it into something that suited her and that she would love to wear.
She said that this amethyst went from a piece that she would never wear to a ring that she LOVES to wear this on her middle finger. It is so different and gets so many compliments!
2. Custom Design:
If you LOVE Amethyst because it is your Birthstone or for the Color or for the Benefits, you can incorporate it into a design custom made, just for you!
Since I have a February birthday, I had an Amethyst pendant that was given to me by my grandfather for my birthday.
The pendant broke a long time ago and I just put it away.
After many years of not even thinking about it, I found it in a drawer.
So, obviously, since custom design is my business, I wanted to make a beautiful ring with it.
Now, I can honestly tell you, that I LOVE to wear this ring and will plan an outfit to show off my ring.
3. Family Jewelry:
The best part of birthstones is to commemorate your loved ones by creating a piece customized to the birth month of each family member. This can be in the form of rings, pendants, charms, or anything else you like.
My pieces from the Currents Collection can be customized to create a commemorative family piece or get with just Amethyst.
