16 Amethyst Jewellery Designs We Love

Amethyst is one of our best selling gemstones and it's no surprise why! We love its gorgeous colouring which ranges from lilac, mauve to a rich, deep purple. It's perfect for those colourful and bold designs. Did you know amethyst is also February's birthstone? At Kernowcraft, we have a range of amethyst cabochons, faceted stones, beads and crystals to choose from for your unique jewellery designs.

Different Types of Amethyst

At Kernowcraft, we have a variety of amethyst. When you hear 'amethyst,' everyone thinks of their beautiful purple colour but we actually stock green and pink amethyst as well.  

Our green amethyst is a lovely pastel colour so if you're looking to shop February's birthstone for a special someone but would like something brighter and softer than our purple amethyst, why not browse our green or pink amethyst collections where we have everything from crystals to beads?

If you're a traditionalist and are absolutely in love with the purple colours of amethyst then here at Kernowcraft we stock Brazilian and African amethyst - two different shades of the gemstone that would be sure to make your jewellery design pop!
