Loving February Birthstones!
The month of love is upon us, and so are the birthdays of our February babies! Sami Fine Jewelry's inspiration is this month's birthstone, amethyst! This purple beauty has been around for generations and has been worn by thousands of people who adore it. If you’re stumped looking for a February baby’s gift, look no further! We have a stunning array of jewelry; from unique pendants and diamond-accented earrings to one-of-a-kind rings and out-of-this-world bracelet patterns that feature this month's stone.
Amethyst is one of the oldest gems to be found in jewelry and ceremonial objects. The Greeks had claimed this stone as a relic of one of the 12 main Olympians, Dionysus. As the god of wine and the arts, Dionysus had gotten many offerings of Amethyst from the Ancient Greeks asking to keep clear-minded during a battle. This gem is even said to ward off drunkenness, thanks to the association with this god! As society grew and changed, the Renaissance era Europeans used amethyst to ward off “fits of passion” between lovers. The English royalty had worn Amethyst for centuries, and it is included in the Crown Jewels! Amethyst jewelry has grown and changed with the times, but we have some timeless pieces we know anyone will want in their jewelry box!
Station necklaces are up-and-coming trends in the jewelry world, and we can’t help but add our own! 14k white gold holds five beautiful radiant-cut Arizona amethysts that rest perfectly on anyone's neck! This is a great casual look that can easily be dressed up.

Amethyst has been known by many different names, but one of the most notable is “The Stone of Peace.” This purple stone is said to have spiritual properties that have helped its wearers. Many people with sleeping issues will keep it in their rooms to assist them while sleeping. It has also been used to create a sense of inner peace in the designated space. Along with being the February birthstone, it is also the stone of the violet chakra, The Divine Crown. It is said to connect you to the divine and unlock new potential in your life. Amethyst is an incredibly powerful stone, and we have earrings that will keep you grounded with opportunities to come!
Good news! The pendulum pendant has a matching earring set! Miniature versions of the modern pendant rest perfectly on each ear. Gorgeous color-matched amethysts make for a perfect birthday set for your giftee’s special day.

Love is an enchanting thing, and amethyst falls hand in hand with enchantment! The largest Amethyst geode in the world is named the “Empress of Uruguay”. It weighs a little over the weight of a car at 2.5 tons and stands at 11 feet tall. It was founded in 2007 and now rests peacefully for viewers in Australia at the Crystal Caves Museum. If that doesn't amaze you this will! In Australia, there is a cove made of an 18-foot-wide amethyst geode. The inside is made of pure amethyst, weighing over 44,000 pounds! Visitors are allowed to find themselves while sitting in this cove, which eventually allowed it to dub its name, “The Enchanted Cove”. Both of these pieces are sights to see!
Although we cannot give you a 2.5-ton geode (if only!), we have some pretty showstopping rings for your February baby. This east-to-west ring is a unique option that is made in 14k yellow gold. 3 petite diamonds sit on both sides of this oval-cut Arizona amethyst. If you want something never done before, this is an amazing option!
