Vintage 9ct Gold Amethyst Ring Size N
This exquisite vintage ring showcases a beautifully faceted oval-cut amethyst, set in a classic 9ct gold bezel setting. The bezel setting not only enhances the rich purple hues of the gemstone but also offers durability and a smooth, elegant finish. The slender gold band complements the amethyst’s regal charm, making this piece both timeless and effortlessly wearable.
Amethyst, a variety of quartz, has been treasured for centuries for its captivating violet tones, ranging from deep royal purple to delicate lilac. Once as highly prized as diamonds, amethysts adorned the crowns and jewellery of European royalty and ancient Egyptian pharaohs. The gemstone has long been associated with qualities of clarity, peace, and protection. It was even believed by the Ancient Greeks and Romans to prevent intoxication—its name derives from the Greek word amethystos, meaning “not drunken.”
Amethyst is the birthstone for February, making this ring a meaningful and sentimental gift for those born in this month. It also represents the 6th and 17th wedding anniversaries, symbolising enduring love and spiritual wisdom.
