In Short
Amethyst jewellery here uses purple quartz in cushion and brilliant cuts, set into gold-filled wire, alongside beaded strands.
What Is This Collection?
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, coloured by iron and natural irradiation. It was historically as prized as ruby and emerald, until large deposits made it widely available. Every piece is handcrafted by John S. Brana in his San Francisco studio.
What This Collection Includes
Wire wrapped drop earrings, large cushion cut pendants, beaded necklaces and sterling silver cocktail rings.
How the pieces differ
Pieces differ by carat weight and cut, and by whether the amethyst is the focal stone or one colour among several in a strand.
Who this collection suits
Anyone born in February, buyers who wear purple and jewel tones, and people looking for a large stone at a reasonable price.
How to Choose
| Option | What it is | Who it suits | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|---|
| Large cushion cut stones | High carat weights in pendants and rings | Statement and evening wear | Ring size, for cocktail rings |
| Brilliant cut drops | Smaller faceted stones in earrings | Daily and office wear | Drop length |
| Beaded amethyst strands | Purple among other stones | Necklaces with mixed colour | How busy the mix reads |
| Silver versus gold-filled | Cool metal sharpens purple, warm metal softens it | Either, depending on your wardrobe | Which metal you wear most |
Criteria that matter most
- Hardness – harder stones suit rings and daily wear; softer ones are safer in earrings and pendants
- Metal pairing – warm metals deepen warm stones, cool metals sharpen cool ones
- Natural variation – every stone differs in tone, so the photograph shows the style rather than the exact piece
- Care – store stones separately and keep them away from ultrasonic cleaners and jewellery dips

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Is amethyst a birthstone?
Yes, amethyst is the February birthstone, and it also marks the 6th wedding anniversary.
Q2. Will amethyst fade in sunlight?
It can. Prolonged direct sunlight lightens the purple over time, so store amethyst pieces in a box rather than on a sunny shelf.
Q3. How durable is amethyst?
At 7 on the Mohs scale it is as hard as other quartz, which makes it suitable for regular wear in earrings, pendants and rings.
Q4. Which metal suits amethyst best?
Sterling silver sharpens the purple through contrast, while gold-filled warms it. Both are used in this collection, so it depends on your wardrobe.
