Monday Moodboard

Today is the last Monday in February and I almost forgot to post a birthstone moodboard! Amethyst, also known as the "stone of wisdom" is one of my all time favourite gemstones. The colours range from deep purple to pale lilac, the latter being my preferred choice. What about you?

Heute ist der letzte Montag im Februar und ich hatte fast vergessen eine Geburtsstein-Collage zu posten! Beim "Heilstein" Amethyst handelt es sich um einen violetten Kristallquarz. Die Farbe variiert häufig und reicht von Tieflila bis hin zu einem pastelligem Violett, wobei letzteres meine bevorzugte Wahl ist. Mögt Ihr diese Farbe?

Hallo liebe Duni,
ja, ich kann dieser Farbe durchaus etwas abgewinnen. Nicht zu jeder Zeit, aber momentan scheint sie trendy zu sein. Jedenfalls gibt es zur Zeit viele viele Treasuries auf Etsy in diesem "purple".
Viele liebe Grüße, Synnöve

I was watching the Oscars last night and one of the actress mentioned about February birthstone, and I thought about you. I knew you forgot to posted it :), but I see it is so pretty then worth to waited for!

Love the ring and necklace. And what a great capture in that photograph!

wow that ring is stunning! what an unusual cut! I prefer the deep purple, but find the whitish-lavender intriguing. Much of the amethyst I saw in India was the latter and I still have many of those stones in my stash :D

Very pretty.

Purple is my favorite color, so amethyst is always at the top of my list. It's my sister's birthstone and I used to be so jealous that she would get more of it for gifts than I would. Haha. (But I've grown to like my own birthstone now, so it's okay.)

Ich wünsche Dir noch einen gemütlichen Nachmittag!

I love amethyst! I'm a little less picky now, but I used to be all about purple the way Edi is about pink. I wanted purple everything. Beautiful picks!
