Amethyst and Purple Jasper Drop Earrings | Gold Plated Rhinestone Rondelles | Statement Stud Earrings | Handmade Gemstone Jewellery

Deep purple beads circling into an open teardrop, catching light at every angle — bold enough for evening, wearable enough for every day.

Eight 6mm amethyst round beads form the open teardrop of these earrings, each rich purple bead separated by a sparkling gold plated rhinestone rondelle for a continuous glitter effect around the circle. Three dyed purple quartzite and pyrite jasper heishi beads sit just above, adding texture and a subtly different shade of purple before the design meets a twisted gold plated hoop and a sleek, architectural rectangular arc stud in matte gold. At 58mm, these earrings have real drop and presence without being heavy to wear.

What is Amethyst?

Amethyst is a variety of quartz prized for thousands of years for its rich violet colour, historically associated with clarity of mind and calm — it was even carried by ancient Greeks and Romans, who believed it warded off intoxication. Its colour ranges from pale lilac to deep, saturated purple, and the rich tone used in these beads sits right at the darker, more dramatic end of that spectrum.

What is Purple Quartzite & Pyrite Jasper?

This heishi bead brings together quartzite — a durable, metamorphic stone — with fine pyrite inclusions, then finished in a rich purple dye to complement the amethyst beneath it. Pyrite's natural metallic glint, even in trace amounts, adds a subtle shimmer within the stone's surface, a lovely textural contrast to the smooth, glassy amethyst rounds below.

A genuinely eye-catching pair — perfect for evenings out, but with enough versatility to elevate a simple daytime outfit too. A lovely gift for anyone who loves rich colour and real gemstone detail in their jewellery.

Caring for your earrings:

A little care keeps the beads and rhinestones sparkling:

• 🚿 Keep them dry — remove before swimming, bathing, or showering
• 🧴 Avoid perfume & products — apply fragrance, hairspray, and lotions before putting your earrings on
• 😴 Take them off before bed — protects the beads and the delicate rondelle detailing
• 🫧 Clean gently — wipe with a soft barely-damp cloth; never soak
• 📦 Store flat or hanging — keep in a soft pouch or lined jewellery box, away from anything that could tangle the drops
• ✨ Keep the rhinestones dry — moisture can dull the sparkle over time

Each pair is handmade and individually strung — the natural variation in the amethyst and jasper beads means your earrings are entirely and beautifully your own.
