Silver pendant with amethyst - Ag 925/1000
This pendant is set with a 6x12 mm longitudinal amethyst cabochon, whose rich purple colour stands out thanks to its smooth polishing and simple, but striking silver frame. The minimalist design lets the stone itself stand out, set in Ag 925/1000 silver.
Amethyst is one of mankind's oldest and most popular gemstones. In ancient Greece , amethyst was believed to protect against intoxication - hence its name from the Greek "amethystos" ("unintoxicated"). In ancient Egypt , it was associated with protection and was often placed in tombs. In India it is traditionally considered a stone of spiritual awakening and meditation, while in Europe it has been a symbol of royal dignity and episcopal wisdom for centuries.
With its deep colour and rich history, amethyst is a stone that bridges cultures and eras - and in this pendant it takes on a modern, wearable form.
