Amethyst – Wholesale Jewelry Spotlight for February

Previously, we mentioned how popular wholesale amethyst jewelry is during Valentine’s Day. If you are wondering why this is so, it’s simply because amethyst is the birthstone for people who are born in the month of February. Amethyst may commonly be mistaken for purple, lavender, violet, or whatever name you call it, and it is not without reason.

Amethyst is actually the violet variant of quartz, which is basically the second most abundant mineral on Earth. With its etymology in Ancient Greek, the name loosely translates to “intoxication”. Wearing the stone during ancient times was quite common as it was believed to prevent its wearer from being intoxicated or drunk. Drinking vessels were even made from the mineral in hopes that it could prevent intoxication.

Despite being quite abundant in nature, amethyst can still be produced synthetically through gamma-ray, x-ray, or electron beam radiation of clear quartz. Without advanced gemnological testing, it is very difficult to differentiate a synthetic amethyst to an authentic one because artificial amethyst minerals are so similar to the real ones, even in terms of its physical and chemical properties.

When it comes to wholesale jewelry, amethyst is more than popular. Many wholesale jewelry store owners often dedicate an entire collection to wholesale amethyst jewelry because clients always look for it. Amethyst can embellish wholesale cocktail rings, add elegance to wholesale wedding rings, and it can add playfulness to wholesale earrings.

There are varieties of cuts that wholesale amethyst jewelry come in as well. Wholesale wedding rings are sometimes topped with marquise amethyst cubic zirconia stones while wholesale necklaces often feature a solitaire amethyst emerald cut that easily draws attention to a woman’s neckline. Wholesale promise rings, wholesale bracelets, and animal-inspired wholesale jewelry are just a few styles where amethyst stones or crystals can add its charm, beauty, and elegance. Who isn’t attracted to the color purple anyway, right?

Wholesale Fashion Jewelry Spotlight: Classic Engagement Ring Styles (Part I)

Proposals happen all-year round and they are especially prevalent during February, when love and romance is celebrated all over the world. A healthy marriage is built on trust, commitment, and love but every marriage starts with one thing – a wedding, and a wedding is never easy on the pocket. Fortunately, budget-conscious couples have one place to go to for affordable engagement rings – wholesale fashion jewelry stores.

So for a wholesale fashion jewelry store owner, here are the Top 10 classic styles of wholesale engagement rings that should be available in their stores:

10. Solitaire – One of the most common but classic styles of wholesale engagement rings is the solitaire type. Sporting a single stone, usually in round cut, the solitaire wholesale engagement ring will never go out of style and any woman will appreciate this on her finger.

9. Stones in fancy shapes – Wholesale engagement rings embellished with stones in fancy shapes are becoming more prevalent nowadays. While round stones are what most ladies prefer, there are still those who want to be unique with their engagement rings. The princess, emerald, oval, asscher, radiant, heart, and pear cuts are just some of the shapes popularized by celebrities today.

8. Big Rocks – Wholesale engagement rings also come with big rocks. The huge stones that sit atop gold-tone or sterling silver engagement rings are sometimes more important than the quality of its color or spark.

7. Signature Presentation – There are certain wholesale engagement ring styles that are distinct to a particular designer. Tiffany & Co. is an example. The classic six-prong setting is said to be designed as such to enhance the light that passes through the top-quality diamond that sits on top of the engagement ring.

6. Three-Stone Rings – Logically, the more diamonds or CZ stones an engagement ring has, the more expensive it gets. The same goes for wholesale engagement rings embellished with three-stone rings. The rocks represent the couple’s past, present, and future relationship and they can be of the same sizes or the center may be bigger than the side stones.

Other classic styles of wholesale jewelry engagement rings include split-shank setting, wedding band sets, and more. Find out what styles belong to the bottom half of the classic styles of wholesale engagement rings next week.
