Handmade Jewelry: Amethyst
Amethyst is a purple variety of the quartz family whose name derives from the Greek word "amethustos," or "not to intoxicate." Amethyst is used to heal headaches, alleviate sugar imbalances and stabilize negative influences. To many the stone encourages peace of mind by opening of the third "celestial" eye, located in the center of the forehead.

Pearls are said to be Aphrodites' "tears of joy."
Available in an array of colors, this underwater beauty is undeniable.
Pearls shimmer with the phenomena that come from a living organism
called a mollusk. Pearls are not measured in carats, like so many other
gems--they are measured in millimeters round.
