Understanding This Piece
About Amethyst
Amethyst is purple quartz, ranging from pale lavender to deep royal purple. Brazil, Uruguay, and Zambia produce the highest-quality stones. Amethyst is hard enough for daily wear (7 on Mohs) and has been prized since antiquity — Greek and Roman tradition held that amethyst protected against intoxication, and it was historically reserved for royalty and clergy. Amethyst is the February birthstone and the 6th-anniversary gem, and offers the most vivid purple in fine jewelry at a relatively accessible price point.
About Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver alloyed with copper for working strength. It offers the brightest white tone of any jewelry metal and the most accessible price point in fine jewelry — typically 5–10% the cost of equivalent gold pieces. Sterling does tarnish over time when exposed to air and skin oils, but the tarnish polishes off easily and we provide complimentary cleaning for life on every sterling silver piece purchased at our Atlanta location.
About Chain-Link Bracelets
A chain-link bracelet drapes flexibly on the wrist via interconnected metal links — curb, Figaro, rope, anchor, Cuban, and box are the most common link patterns. The construction is durable, snag-resistant, and well-suited for daily wear. Chain-link bracelets work alone as everyday pieces or layered with watches, tennis bracelets, and bangles for a modern stacked look.
