Ten faceted amethysts play across this necklace in shades of purple and cool violet, each facet catching the light from a different angle. The vintage silhouette of the design follows the neckline without weighing it down. The violet of amethyst has long been linked to calm and clarity of mind, and here that symbolism comes through in a subtle, feminine form.

All ten amethysts were matched for tone, so the colour of the stones stays consistent along the entire length of the necklace, and the high quality doesn't show up in the price. Silver and good coloured stones get more expensive year after year, so buying this quality at this price makes sense today. The metal is pure, refined sterling silver 925, free of nickel and other harmful additives, and a rhodium layer protects it against tarnishing and scratches, so the necklace needs cleaning less often. The silver is stamped with the French maker's mark, which attests to the metal's origin.

For everyday wear, this necklace pairs well with a linen shirt open at the neck or a loose cotton dress in a natural shade - the violet of the amethysts stands out against the raw fabric and draws the eye without unnecessary glitz. The adjustable chain measures 47 cm, and an additional 4 cm extension lets you freely adjust it to the depth of the neckline. This is jewellery you can wear from morning to evening, simply changing what you pair around it.
