At the centre of this ring sits a substantial, vibrant purple amethyst, rich in colour. The impressive size of the gemstone is beautifully enhanced by an open basket gallery, which adds height and a little bit of drama. Surrounding the amethyst is a patterned, asymmetrical gold halo, giving the ring a distinctive, artistic edge with a super modernist feel.

The ring offers exceptional finger coverage of just over two centimetres in length. Bright, warm gold tones run throughout, further emphasised by the tapered band which provides an elegant contrast to the scale of the setting and allows the amethyst to take centre stage.

Amethyst is the birthstone for February and has long been associated with calmness, spiritual clarity, royalty, and courage.
