Amethyst Pendant Crafted in Sterling Silver
A rich purple-coloured amethyst mounted as a pendant in a handcrafted sterling silver setting.
The gemstone can initially look quite dark, but once illuminated, a magical transformation takes place.
Translucent amethyst crystals exhibit a vitreous lustre. Stones with this lustre reflect light in a similar way to glass.
An amethyst gemstone once used as a seal was recently found in Israel. It features an engraving of a bird and a branch with five fruits. Found in bedrock beneath the Western Wall in Jerusalem, it's believed to be approximately 2,000 years old.
The cabochon in this amethyst pendant is quite bulbous but it's an exceptional gemstone.
