Amethyst & Pearl Pendant | Vintage Pin Conversion

Amethyst has been a beloved stone since ancient times. In Greek mythology, a young girl named Amethystos was turned to stone by the Goddess Diana to protect her from Dionysus, the God of wine. Dionysus was deeply saddened over this and when his tears hit his wine goblet, the stone maiden is said to have turned from white quartz to a beautiful purple hue.

This elegant pendant features a vibrant oval amethyst framed by lustrous half pearls.

The 15ct gold piece was originally a vintage brooch (circa 1920-1930) transformed by removing the pin findings and welding on a 14k gold jump ring bail.

It measures 1.3 inches from top to bottom by 0.6 inches wide and is in excellent condition!

Materials: Amethyst, Gold.
