AMETHYST HEART

Whether it’s the violet colour that you love or that the calming Amethyst is your February birthstone, this lilac-hued gemstone has always been viewed as a stone of peace.

Some believe amethyst's calming presence produces soothing dreams, and as well brings clarity and peacefulness to the waking mind.

We at Shorewood Jewelry believe in quality and because every piece is made of solid 925 sterling silver as it’s base metal, we can genuinely call it fine jewelry.

Real Sterling can be worn for years, without turning the skin a green tinge, such as with brass. As well, unlike brass, sterling silver is hypoallergenic.

Although swimming in the salty ocean or a chlorinated pool is not recommended because the salt can ultimately corrode the silver, you can shower in clean water every day with sterling silver.

That said, although considered a precious metal, one of the biggest things to be mindful of when it comes to sterling silver is that it is composed of a soft metal.

Yes, although it’s precious, sterling is soft!

It is definitely more bendable and pliable than for
instance, stainless steel, which is a hard metal.

So remember to be mindful of 2 things:

1. Be aware of the chain on your neck when quickly pulling a sweater over your head, or it could cause the chain to break!

2. Be aware to be gentle with the post on your stud or hoop earrings. Although the posts can be moved, as sometimes they bend slightly and need to be straightened, remember to do it smoothly and gently, with fingers held firmly on the whole post, as you move it into place.
