Formed over millions of years, the prehistoric amethyst gemstone has been marveled throughout history. Regarded as one of the most precious gemstones, as valued as diamonds and a symbol of royalty, it adorned English regalia in the Middle Ages, clergy as a symbol of Christ, Saint Valentine as an amethyst ring with Cupid carved into it, and 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 earth's beauty starts with lava and a process that forms amethyst naturally over millions of years, some over 100 million years. Complimenting this wonderful piece of earth is the contrast of the creamy white pearl of the water.
Formed over millions of years for you. This beautiful vintage pendant encapsulates the past, present and future beauty. It’s a precious reminder that some of the best things take time.
