These amethyst cushion cut earrings hold a natural, treated amethyst in a solitaire basket stud. The cushion's soft square outline and rounded corners give the purple a gentle, glowing look. Choose the total carat weight and the metal: white, yellow or rose gold, platinum, or Silvadium, a tarnish-resistant sterling silver.
Studs sit close for everyday ease; drops and dangles add graceful movement for evening.
Choose a secure screw back for daily wear, or a classic push back for quick on-and-off.
From subtle solitaires to bold statement carats — total weight is split across the pair.
White, yellow, rose gold or platinum — pick a tone that flatters your skin and wardrobe.
Buying guide
A cushion cut is a square to slightly rectangular shape with rounded corners and broad facets, often compared to a pillow. The larger facets show color in wide flashes, so the amethyst's purple looks full and even. The rounded corners have no sharp points to chip, which helps a stone worn every day. In a basket stud, four prongs hold the stone on a low frame that sits close to the ear.
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz and the birthstone for February. It rates 7 on the Mohs scale, enough for earrings, which take fewer knocks than rings. Tones run from pale lilac to deep violet. Wash the studs in warm, soapy water with a soft brush, and avoid long hours in strong sunlight, which can fade the color over time.
The studs come from 0.5 to 10 carats total weight, so a pair can be a small daily accent or a bold statement. Gold comes in 10K, 14K or 18K. Yellow and rose gold warm the purple, while white gold, platinum and silver keep it cool and crisp. Prices start under $200, and many pairs are about $400.
Each piece is made for you in 10–15 days. Shipping is free on orders over $500, and returns are accepted within 30 days.
