Vintage 14ct amethyst bow brooch in box.

A wonderful 14ct yellow gold amethyst bow brooch in original box.

Amethyst is the birthstone of February, and it is also the official gemstone for the 6th and 17th wedding anniversaries. Amethyst occurs in many shades, from a light, slightly lavender pinkish to a deep purple. Amethyst can also be slightly pleochroic, which means that when light hits the gem, shades of different colors such as reds and blues can be seen from different angles.

Amethyst is a relatively tough gem so it can be cleaned with warm soapy water (mild washing up liquid will suffice) and a soft cloth or brush. Remember to clean the bottom of the stone as dirt trapped on the underside will stop some light getting into the stone and may make it appear more dull than usual.
