The deep violet of three amethysts opens up this bracelet for the wrist, in a form so simple that nothing distracts from the stone itself. The faceted cut breaks light across multiple planes and draws out darker, purple flashes from the amethyst, rather than flattening the colour into a single tone. The minimalist line of the chain does not compete with the stones, it simply guides the eye along the hand. Amethyst has long been associated with inner calm and clarity of mind, and in some traditions was regarded as a symbol of balance.

Only a small share of the sorted raw material makes it into this bracelet, because what matters is purity of colour and clarity of the stone, not sheer size. Silver and precious metals rise in price year after year, and good-quality amethysts like these are becoming harder to source, so buying at this price makes sense today. The core of the bracelet is refined European silver 925, coated with a thick layer of 18-carat gold confirmed by the stamped V mark - it is the gold, not the silver, that touches the skin and accounts for the wearing comfort. The alloy remains free of nickel and other metals that cause allergic reactions, so the bracelet does not cause allergies. The French maker's mark placed on the piece attests to the origin of the silver. The bracelet measures 19 cm, and an adjustable 4 cm extension allows it to be fitted to the wrist.

This form feels most at home in everyday wear, under a loose linen shirt cuff or with the rolled-up sleeve of a cotton blouse. It also looks good on its own, on a bare hand, when the rest of the outfit stays in simple, natural fabrics. The violet of the amethysts already carries enough colour on its own, so a light beige, white or grey background is all it needs. Its small, light weight of 3.6 g means the bracelet is felt on the wrist only when you look at it.
