Amethyst Stone With Sterling Silver Wire Wrapped EarringsNo two gemstones are ever identical, so each amethyst earring has its own unique variants. I learned something about amethyst that I've never heard about, so I will share with you now. It's origin is Greek and the word amethyst means it will keep the owner from drunkenness. Hmmm I might give it a try tonight with my favorite bottle of wine! Hang 2" down.
