Admittedly, we aren’t the biggest fans of the purple stone amethyst (Ashley’s birthstone for February), but this heart is a beautiful exception! The deep purple amethyst is cabochon cut on the front and faceted in the back, making a beautiful play of color with in the stone. Surrounding the amethyst are 17 white pearls. This pendant looks great worn on a thing gold chain!
