Our sterling silver February birthstone hoop earrings display soft amethyst gems set in simple polished surrounds dangling from three-quarter hoops. Each month of the year is associated with a different gemstone which brings luck to the wearer. Amethyst is the birthstone for February. This semi-precious gemstone is translucent and sparkling, popular for its colour and radiance. The serene purple amethyst signifies peace and protection.
