Amethyst Huggie Earrings

Featuring petite polished Amethyst stone cut into shape and set in an 18k gold plated prong earring over sterling silver, also known as 'vermeil.'

Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz. The meaning of Amethyst is spiritual healing, calmness, and wisdom. Said to be the bridge that connects the concrete with the divine - the meaning of Amethyst has long been synonymous with spirituality and is famed for its close association with both the third eye and the crown chakra.

At a base level, Amethyst is renowned for bringing a sense of calm and clarity to our chaotic world. Nature's tranquilizer instantly soothes whatever space it is placed in.

Amethyst can be used in the home to help build upon the free flow of Feng Shui. Being associated strongly with yin energy, it is a beautiful balancing tool. Placed in the office it helps attune to inner creativity. Placed in the bedroom it nurtures deep soulful sleep. Placed in family areas it work wonders at absorbing strains of negativity and transmuting these energies into something positive.

Gently buff vermeil and gold plated jewelry with a soft dry cloth (microfiber). Never use jewelry cleaner, soap, or water. Store your plated and vermeil jewelry in an airtight plastic baggie to keep moisture out and to protect the piece from surface scratches. Do not store plated and vermeil jewelry in your bathroom or anywhere it can be exposed to water or humidity.

Avoid contact with water, lotions, oils, and other liquid-based substances which will damage the plating. Always remove gold plated and vermeil jewelry when washing your hands, showering, exercising, sleeping, swimming, cleaning, etc.

It is safe to use mild soap and water to clean gold filled jewelry, however.
