Amethyst Ring

Two stones. One contrast.

A beaded ring built on a band of frosted Yellow Jade, with raw Amethyst chips clustered at the center. The yellow is soft and even; the purple breaks it — uncut, irregular, each piece slightly different from the last. Size 7, finished by hand for daily wear.

• Elements: Natural Yellow Jade, natural Amethyst chips, elastic core
• Size: 7
• Rarity: Limited seasonal release.
• Associations: Gemini (Yellow Jade) | Pisces (Amethyst)

Amethyst was among the most prized stones in the ancient world — not for its rarity, but for what it was believed to prevent. Greek and Roman texts record the stone's association with sobriety and clear judgment; wine cups were carved from it, and the name itself derives from the Greek amethystos, meaning "not intoxicated." The belief traveled far beyond Greece. Medieval European clergy wore amethyst rings as a mark of temperance and spiritual clarity — a tradition documented across ecclesiastical records for centuries. — Kunz, G.F., The Curious Lore of Precious Stones, J.B.
