Birthstone of the Month: February
Welcome back for the second installment of our Birthstone of the Month series. This month we’re taking a look at February's gem, Amethyst! The purple variety of quartz, Amethyst was once as expensive as Rubies, Emeralds, or Sapphires. But when large deposits were discovered in Brazil in the 19th century, abundance drove the price down. Amethyst may no longer be considered as valuable as other gems, but they’re no less precious to us!
