SYMBOLIC & HEALING PROPERTIES
Amethyst comes from the Greek word ‘amethystos’ which means sober. Thus this gemstone is said to promote balance, stability, inner harmony and courage, qualities often associated with royalty.
The diamond shapes in your pendant represent the double zig-zag lines of February’s star sign Aquarius, the water bearer. Water will always find its own level and return to a state of stillness. Wearing an amethyst pendant will help you to do the same and bring about psychological cleansing, inner peace and harmony.

DESCRIPTION
The pendant has a central pearl in a gold bezel with four seed pearls and four amethysts. The amethysts are what they call 'fancy', cut in the shape of a kite. It is held by a large tear shaped hoop, so it can be worn on the dotty chain we give you, or you could put it on one of your own chains.
DIMENSIONS
The pendant is 30 x 25mm. The central pearl is 6mm and the amethysts are 6mm x 3mm. The seed pearls are 2mm each.
Both the pendant and chain are made from brass with one micron of 18k gold vermeil, so the gold should last well. The reason some of our pieces are made of brass, not silver, is that should the vermeil begin to wear off, it will not show nearly so much on brass thus giving your piece a long life of wear.
The chain, which is interspersed with tiny gold balls, is 18 inches long including a two inch extension and fastens with a lobster claw.
