Green Amethyst Pendants

Green amethyst pendants, such as for example this
Ellen Himic Green Amethyst Finial Briolette Pendant Necklace can be really astonishing pieces of jewelry. But, before discussing the green amethyst prasiolite pendants as jewelry items, let us refresh our memory and see what is the symbolism of the pendant itself. Depending on your own preferences, a pendant can be a mere decoration - adornment - or it can be a symbol of someone or something that you want to hold close to your heart. Yes, a pendant is usually hanging from your necklace and is more often than not situated very close to your heart. So the symbolism is very straightforward. Of course, somebody can argue that a pendant can hang from your earrings as well, but this is not so frequent. The necklace can be a piece of design jewelry, but it also can be a chain you wear around your neck, it does not matter much. This said, pendants ca be an excellent choice when you want to bestow a gift on a person about whom you care very much, you have a passionate relationship with, or you really and truly love. Women loves them because they are elegant, and yet simple. They can contain your favorite symbol, be it a star, cross, ankh, tear, heart, or ellipse.

Pendants can be of various kinds, they can be such as to celebrate somebody's birthday, or they can hold a someone's picture within, or even you can buy one for yourself. But here I will only discuss the gemstone pendants, and especially the green amethyst pendants. Amethysts are know to possess a great soothing and comforting influence, and this is even more emphasized with the green amethyst. Their green color is inspirational and bring healing and concentration. Amethyst is simply great to be around you, and even amethyst geodes can be used to clean the atmosphere in your home or in your work space. Unfortunately, you would not be able to find any green amethyst geodes, but small green amethyst gemstones embedded in your pendant can be just as effective on a smaller scale. Wearing green amethyst can keep the migraines away and reduce the headaches caused by stress. More about the green amethyst meaning and spiritual properties you can read in my other post.

Women simply enjoy wearing unique jewelry, and this hold true also for the pendants. But gemstone pendants are not exclusively for woman, they a available also for men. Sometimes unique pendants can be quite expensive, especially the green amethyst ones. But even jewelry articles which are not design items can be costly. Green amethyst prasiolite is getting more and more popular these days, and although the stone itself should not be so expensive (since it is lab modified stone by using ordinary amethyst). The greened amethyst gemstones are combined with 14k gold, platinum or diamonds and this is certainly the reason behind the elevated prices. For example the pendant shown bellow comes together with a18k yellow gold ball chain, and usually when you have 18k gold this is a sign of fine jewelry.



The shape and cut of the prasiolite pendants can be quite different. Some of them are cut just like diamonds, but the different light refraction properties of amethyst require also different cut variations. You can take a look at the photo above, and you will see that the green amethyst stone in shaped in multiple facets which allows it to glitter as the person who wears it moves around. The stone itself is shaped in form of briolette which actually means that it is faceted with three-sided facets and it has been given the shape of a teardrop. The necklace is 16 inches, and the pendant itself is 1 and 3/4 inches long.


Apart from this briolette shape, the green amethyst pendant can be faceted in form of hearts, stars, blooms, and flakes. Very often also other types of gemstones are used, so that different birthstone pendants can be combined with their appropriate birthstones, including diamond, sapphire, emerald, garnet, etc. Amethyst, for example, is a birthstone of the month of February and this is the case also for prasiolite - green amethyst.

When it comes to the price of gemstone pendants, they can start from $150 and go up depending on the particular precious or semi precious stone. Green amethyst pendant can be found for as low as $150, but the more beautiful articles can cost around $250 and sometimes even more. The jewelry designers have different style and habits. They can combine multicolored stones, use enamel for protective and decorative purposes, and employ some special methods to create unique necklaces and pendants.

In conclusion, pendants in general, and green amethyst pendants in particular can come in a variety of designs and shapes. They are really very special pieces of jewelry since they serve as a means to convey love, friendship, adoration, and passion for someone. They appeal to men and women equally, and to people of all ages.
