Perhaps the perfect purple lights for the holiday season. Regarded as one of the most precious gemstones, historically valued as diamonds and a symbol of royalty, it adorned clergy as a symbol of Christ. This earth's beauty starts with lava and a process that forms amethyst naturally over millions of years, some over 100 million years.
The prehistoric amethyst gemstone has been marveled throughout history. It was worn by English regalia in the Middle Ages, Saint Valentine as an amethyst ring with Cupid carved into it, and it was greatly valued and utilized by Leonardo da Vinci.
As it is written, amethyst is one of the 12 foundation gemstones of the New Jerusalem to come, heaven on earth, from the Bible and represents one of the 12 tribes of Israel.
This beautiful vintage pendant encapsulates the past, present and future beauty. It’s a precious reminder that some of the best things take time.
