Description
Amethyst & Citrine – Original Handcrafted Jewelry. This elegant Peruvian gemstone pendant is an original, one-of-a-kind handcrafted jewelry creation, individually made in 950 silver and set with natural amethyst and citrine.
The composition is dominated by a substantial oval amethyst, displaying a rich and luminous violet-purple coloration. Its smooth polished surface allows the depth and natural tonal variations of the quartz to become the principal visual element of the jewel.
Positioned above the amethyst is a contrasting oval citrine, introducing a warm golden-yellow accent against the cool violet tones below. The pairing of these two natural quartz varieties creates a sophisticated interplay of color while giving the pendant an immediately recognizable character.
The gemstones are framed by carefully worked 950 silver. Symmetrical scroll motifs surround the upper stone, while fine twisted borders emphasize the form of the amethyst. The lower section tapers into an elegant pointed silhouette, giving the composition a refined sense of proportion and vertical movement.
Every component has been individually formed, assembled, set, and finished by hand. The natural characteristics of the gemstones and individually executed silverwork ensure that this is a unique original piece with the subtle variations inherent to authentic artisan jewelry.
Combining natural amethyst and citrine, 950 silver, traditional hand craftsmanship, and contemporary design, this distinctive pendant may be appreciated both as an elegant statement jewel and as a collectible example of contemporary Peruvian wearable art.
