The special pattern of striped amethyst
Striped amethyst – also known as banded or "chevron" amethyst – is the natural co-occurrence of amethyst and whitish milky quartz. In the stone, purple and whitish bands beautifully alternate, creating an exciting pattern. This pendant is made from a beautifully cut piece, drilled through and fitted with a metal cap, so you can wear it immediately.
Style and wearing tips
Striped amethyst is understatedly special; we recommend it especially to you if you like unique, non-everyday pieces. It looks nice with dark blue, black, white, and cream clothes. With a silver chain, it has a clean, modern effect; threaded onto a leather cord, it takes on a more natural character. Both everyday and festive wear are possible.
Cleaning and care
Wipe it in lukewarm soapy water with a soft cloth, and avoid chemicals and perfume near the pendant. Keeping the metal cap in water for a long time is not recommended. Store it in a soft pouch in a darker place, as the purple shade may fade under strong sunlight. We recommend wiping it once a week.
Who do we recommend this pendant to?
We recommend it to you if you are looking for a special, tasteful gift for a dear family member, girlfriend, or perhaps your child. The striped pattern lends a youthful, fresh appearance, but it is also attractive to more mature ladies. It is also suitable as a graduation, birthday, or Christmas gift, because its beauty is timeless.
What is worth keeping in mind when buying?
Since the stripes form naturally, their proportion and direction varies from piece to piece. There are examples where the purple shade dominates, and others where the white bands are more emphatic. The picture is for guidance, so the piece you receive may have slight differences. If you have a specific idea in mind, please indicate it in your order.
