Purple, a colour often identified with royalty, was a favourite among kings and pharaohs, thus, amethysts were prominently featured in crown jewels. Amethysts were also associated with Dionysus, the Greek God of wine. In ancient Rome, they were worn to prevent intoxication and bring the wearer tranquillity.




First class "diamond" cut facets ; exceptionally generous amount of hallmarked 925 silver used - making this a very strong piece.
