A cultural and commercial celebration of love and romance, Valentine’s Day has many popular legends associated with it. Among them is Saint Valentine’s purple amethyst ring that was engraved with a Cupid figure. Legend tells that he carried the piece so he could be recognized as a marriage facilitator.
