Why you'll love it

Most amethyst rings are faceted to sparkle. The Magic Amethyst Ring is different. It's a cabochon, which means the amethyst is polished into a smooth, rounded dome instead of being cut with facets. So instead of flashy sparkle, you get rich, calm colour you can sink into: deeper purple at the edges and softer violet where the light comes through.

It's big enough to be the star of the show and easy enough to wear with everything. It's made for the boho chic look (think flowy dresses, stacked bangles and a bit of Stevie Nicks energy), but it's just as good with jeans and a white tee.

We don't call it Magic for nothing.

A natural stone with its own personality

Your amethyst is a genuine natural gemstone, so its size, shape and colour will vary slightly from the photos, and you may see inclusions. Inclusions are natural lines, specks and colour variations that formed inside the stone over millions of years. They're proof it's the real thing, and they mean no one else has a ring exactly like yours.

What does amethyst mean?

Amethyst has long been linked with spirituality and calm, and is often called a natural tranquilliser. It's traditionally associated with:

• A calm, balanced mindset
• Relieving stress and soothing irritability
• Dispelling anger
• Spiritual awareness and intuition

Amethyst is the birthstone for February and a much loved stone for Aquarius, so it's an absolute must for our fabulous, free-spirited Aquarius queens. Not an Aquarius? Not born in February? We won't be checking.

Care

• Take your ring off before the gym, gardening, cleaning or anything where it could be knocked. A polished cabochon can scratch or chip with a hard knock.
• Remove it before swimming and showering, and keep it away from perfume, hand cream and harsh chemicals.
• Don't leave it sitting in strong sunlight or heat for long periods, as this can fade amethyst's colour over time.
• Clean the amethyst with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. No ultrasonic or steam cleaners.
• Polish the sterling silver with your Desiderate Sparkle Cloth, taking care around the stone.
• Store it on its own so it doesn't get scratched by other jewellery.
