The Colour of Purple

One of the fashion colours being shown for Fall is Purple. The colour can be said so many ways - Purple, Plum, Eggplant and my personal favourite, Aubergine. Doesn't matter how you say it, it is a gorgeous colour.

The best gem for this colour is the Amethyst. Amethyst is easily the most popular of the quartz minerals. It is crystalline quartz in shades of purple or lavender, with the darker richer colored varieties considered the most valuable. Brazil is the most prolific source of amethyst in the world today and so the most common source for cut stones on the market.




A shield-cut Amethyst teams up with beautiful round amethyst to hang from a 23 inch sterling silver rectangular link chain accented with more amethysts. While the chain is long enough to slip over your head, it easily opens with a sterling silver lobster clasp. Amethyst beads decorate the back of your neck.
