A delicate 8 x 10 mm oval amethyst is set in an 18k gold bezel, atop a heavy sterling silver band. The balls on either side of the stone are 18k gold, as well. The amethyst is more of a grape jelly color and brighter than it shows in the photos - a lovely purple!

***Amethyst is a variety of quartz that ranges in color from a light pinkish violet to a deep purple. Used to treat insomnia as well as headaches, the ancient Greeks believed amethyst could prevent intoxication and made drinking goblets from it. Today, amethysts are used in alternative healing therapies to deal with addictions. It is the birthstone for February.***

Currently a size 7, I will be happy to size this ring up or down to fit. :O)

Made one at a time in my Sonoran desert studio. xo
