Pear Shape Orchid Purple Amethyst Pendant

Sometimes a gem is just so fabulous that it stands on its own as a beautiful piece of jewelry- this Amethyst is case-in-point. The pear shaped Amethyst weighs in at over 10cts, and is imbued with the most unusual “orchid purple” shade. We love Amethysts in just about any color, but this medium violet with just a hint of magenta undertone is one of our favorites- and very rare to find. Since the gem is such a knock-out, it is set simply in a yellow gold basket for a solitaire pendant look. We love gems this size (total length 1 inch on the pendant) because they look great worn on the neck or worn low over a blouse – very versatile.
