Amethyst Pendant | February Birthstone | 30mm Inverted Teardrop | Sterling Silver

The inverted teardrop shape, point at the bottom, widening towards the top were the bail sits, gives this 30mm x 22mm amethyst a more striking appearance to the standard oval pendants.  Choose single bezel for a slimmer silver edge or double bezel for a more substantial frame.

The Story Behind Amethyst

The deep violet-purple you see here comes from amethyst's crystal chemistry: it's a form of quartz coloured by iron impurities that have been altered by natural background radiation deep in the rock over time, remove that irradiation and the same iron-bearing quartz would stay colourless. 

It's the recognised birthstone for February and the stone of the Aquarius zodiac sign, and folklore has followed it for centuries; the Ancient Greeks linked it to sobriety, and it's long been associated with calm, clear thinking.

Amethyst is the traditional anniversary gemstone gift for couples celebrating 33 years of marriage - representing peace and enduring love.
