The deep violet of six faceted amethysts draws the eye all along the necklace. Each facet catches the light differently - one moment flashing dark purple, the next a lighter, almost pink glint, and as you move, those flashes ripple across the stones like a wave. The loose, irregular shape of the chain draws on boho style and sits naturally on the neckline, without pressing against the neck. Amethyst has long been associated with calm and clarity of mind - an association that persists across many cultures to this day.

All six amethysts were matched so that colour and clarity form one coherent whole, with no random variation in shade. Prices of silver and quality coloured stones keep rising, so a necklace at this price is a sound choice today. The metal is pure, refined sterling silver 925 - the hallmark confirms the purity of the alloy, and the rhodium coating protects the surface from scratches and loss of shine for years to come. The maker's mark stamped on the silver, registered with the French assay office, attests to the origin of the metal. A weight of 9.6 grams and the large size of the stones give the necklace a distinct yet not heavy presence on the neckline.

The chain measures 38 centimetres, and an adjustable 4-centimetre extension lets you fit it to the depth of the neckline and the cut of your top. It looks great with an oversized chunky-knit sweater layered over a simple shirt, and pairs well with a linen scarf in muted tones - the violet of the amethysts stands out clearly against it. For autumn layering, a suede jacket and a midi skirt, it brings an easy, boho character without unnecessary flash.
