Did you know that pinecones protect pine tree seeds? The pinecones keep them from freezing in the cold weather by closing their “scales”. Pinecones can also stay on trees for 10 years before falling to the ground.

Nature-Inspired Amethyst Gemstone Necklace
Peridot Crystals, Freshwater Pearls, Sterling Silver

This eye-catching gemstone necklace features amethyst gemstones, green peridot crystals, and glossy freshwater pearls, offering an earthy elegance suitable for both formal and casual wear. There are three different amethyst bead types: tapered oval tubes, oval flat beads, and small rounds. Their color is a light, delicately toned violet, with pale areas of quartz. Amethyst itself is a variety of quartz. The color mix of purple and green always reminds me of irises, lilacs, lavender, or other purple flowers in garden greenery.

To enhance these colors, I choose off-white freshwater pearls and Italian-made sterling silver rounds (2mm) and rondelles (3mm, 4mm). I also added petaled sterling silver bead caps to the oval rounded flat amethyst beads. The green peridot crystals (6mm, 4mm) are from Swarovski and bicone in shape. All together, these elements give this necklace gloss, shine, and sparkle.

This piece is designed with three amethyst tube beads as focals in the center of the necklace. Each one is bordered by the larger sterling rondelles. Between each amethyst focal is a bead group with three pearls flanked by small silver rounds and the peridot crystals. Then on either side of the strand are the following:

• Another 6mm peridot crystal
• A bead group with three bead-capped flat oval amethyst beads separated by the smaller (4mm) crystals
• A set of nine freshwater pearls, with smaller sterling rounds separating the beads into trios
• Another small sterling bead, followed by six amethyst rounds
• Finishing components that include a large heavy-duty sterling crimp covered by a sterling crimp cover (4mm), a sterling silver wire guard, and two of the smaller silver rondelles bordering the crimp

The wire guards help to protect from abrasion the necklace's high-quality 49-strand beading wire (made in the USA). The clasp is a sterling silver "S" hook, with a soldered silver connector ring. The necklace strand's length is approximately 20 inches.

A real day brightener and highly versatile, this pretty amethyst necklace with peridot crystals and freshwater pearls was handmade by me with care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. It comes in a nice organza bag set inside an eco-friendly kraft box, all wrapped up for gift giving to that special someone—perhaps yourself!

ABOUT THE GEMSTONE
A member of the quartz family, amethyst is traditionally considered a protective, talismanic stone. The name amethyst comes from the Greek word "amethusos," which means "not drunk." The gemstone is associated with the crown chakra, and is the birthstone for February. Amethysts are actually crystals and often have inclusions, clouding, and other interesting elements to them, as well as various shadings of their distinctive purple color.
