A charming heart-shaped pendant crafted from natural Brazilian Amethyst and mounted in handcrafted 18Kt gold. The gemstone displays the delicate violet to lavender tones for which Amethyst is celebrated, with excellent translucency allowing light to illuminate the stone from within. Its polished surface and symmetrical heart form create an elegant balance between natural beauty and refined craftsmanship.

Amethyst is the purple variety of Quartz, coloured by trace amounts of Iron and natural irradiation during crystal growth. The gemstone's colour can range from soft lilac to deep royal purple, and its vitreous lustre enhances its visual depth and brilliance. In this pendant, the finish highlights the purity of colour and subtle internal features unique to natural Quartz.

Brazil is one of the world's most important sources of fine Amethyst, producing crystals within volcanic geodes formed by ancient basaltic lava flows. Over millions of years, silica-rich fluids crystallised within these cavities, creating the gem-quality amethyst that has made Brazilian deposits famous.
