Description from Granny Nancy: Wow, LB has a huge selection of this gemstone in both the dark and the lavender amethyst. Also there's a big variety of Czech crystal beads and perhaps some glass. My focus was on gemstones.
Anyway, amethyst is the birthstone gemstone for those born in February. Sometimes I learn there are other gems besides our traditionally known for many commonly known birthstones. I'll let ya'll look into all that.

Maggies Mom says:Love this! Never too much purple!
I especially like the Cut Drops, they are gorgeous!

Granny Nancy says:Oh yes we can’t restrict ourselves but must enjoy them all. LB has a huge selection of amethyst so you wear them a lot. Purples are my largest stash of soup beads, gems, and Czech.
And MM I have those cut drops and haven’t had the courage to make a statement necklace with them. But then I wasn’t making much for several years but I’m trying to get back in the groove again.
