Amethyst & Ametrine

Fantasy Cut Amethyst Ring.
Here the smith built a special head for this magnificent Amethyst.
The color is just light enough to easily see the fabulous laser cutting
on the underside of this fantasy Fan shape. The surface of the
stone is cut similar to a Roll Top, but the facets are tapered to work
with the shape of the stone. From point to point, and from center
point to top of the curve respectively, this stone measures 15mm x 10mm.
The pictures above have captured about a tenth of the beauty of this
one, and it is yours for $245.00.

Amethyst Fantasy Ring; Double Fans.
The look of a Japanese Sensu fan is mirror-imaged on
this glorious one of a kind ring. The Amethyst
has magnificent color and clarity, and this is
intensified by the fabulous Fantasy cutting here;
Fan shape with Roll Top surface cut. The
planes of the Roll Top cutting are tapered to follow
the shape of the stone, and the undersides of the
stones are faceted, too. Each stone measures
8mm x 10mm, and they are securely held in this
custom designed bypass mounting. It measures
13/16" long on the diagonal that covers the most
surface, so it has great presence without being
overbearing in physical size. No other like
this, it is $275.00.

Amethyst East/West Ring With Trillions.
This is very nice! The center stone is an
Antique Emerald cut, having the slightly convex
outer planes. It is from Brazil, so is a
medium purple tone that shows off its excellent
cutting. For contrast, we have a pair of
African Amethyst Trillions, measuring 5mm each.
They are darker, of course, and so are an excellent
compliment to the Brazilian in the middle. The
east to west mounting of the center stone gives an
impression of more size to the stone than it really
possesses; it measures 10mm x 8mm for a carat weight
of 2.59. This ring is size 7 and is $90.00.

Laser Millennium Cut Brazilian Amethyst Solitaire
Ring.
This is a Brazilian Amethyst, so it is not as dark as
the pictures make it appear. I usually choose
the Brazilian for the Laser type and Millennium
cuttings since the African Amethyst is dark enough
to hide part of the cutting. This is a very
well faceted stone, and the Millennium cutting seems
to add an additional zillion or so facets to it.
It is a soft cornered Trillion measuring 12mm x 12mm
for a carat weight of 5.14. The mounting is
simple and clean, allowing the stone to do all the
talking. This custom beauty is size 7 and is $95.00.
  
Designer Made Triple Marquise Fantasy Amethyst Ring.
The pictures clearly show the unusual shape of the stone in this ring.
The appearance suggests three separate stones laid one atop the other,
each one slightly offset to the one below. It is, of course, only
one stone with a brilliant fantasy cut, and definitely one to own.
It measures 9mm x 15mm, and is buff top with all of the faceting on the
underside of the stone. A special mounting was created for this
stone, and it is $175.00.
Amethyst Fantasy Ring; Double Fans.

this glorious one of a kind ring. The Amethyst
has magnificent color and clarity, and this is
intensified by the fabulous Fantasy cutting here;

planes of the Roll Top cutting are tapered to follow

SOLD
Amethyst Solitaire, Roll Top Barrel Cut.
The pictures show the stone slightly
darker than it is in reality, but also fails to show the cutting to best
advantage. This is a Roll Top, which means that you have lateral
bars on the top of the Convex Emerald cut. On the underside, the
bar facets run longitudinally, so the overall effect is a three
dimensional checkerboard. The stone measures 10.5mm x 8.2mm, and
my smith has created this almost vintage-looking mounting, which is
perfect for this stone. This one is $135.00.
  
SOLD Ametrine & Jelly Quartz Ring.
This is a nice Ametrine with a good split
and very fine definition between the golden and the purple. The
center stone measures 7mm x 9mm, and the two Trillion cut Jelly Quartz
each measure 5mm for really nice balance. This one is $85.00.
  
Laser Cut Oval Amethyst Ring.
Not pink in person, but rather truly
Amethyst, this Oval cut wonder is an absolute delight. The picture
to the far right shows the laser cutting on the top of the otherwise
smooth surface at the top and bottom of the stone. All of the rest
of the cutting is done on the bottom of the stone. It is a very
dimensional look! The stone measures 12mm x 14mm in a Royal Oval
cut and rests in a substantial mounting. It is $150.00.
  
Ametrine Solitaire, "D" Cut.
As you can
see, I am still not quite there in terms of photographs! This is a
very pretty Ametrine; more Amethyst than Citrine, in a fantasy cut
referred to as a "D" cut. The stone measures 10mm x 12mm, and of
course had to have a mounting custom made for it due to the shape.
Another lovely one of a kind ring for you, it is $195.00.
  
Amethyst Fantasy "Keystone" Cut Solitaire Ring.
This is a 14mm x 10mm, 3ct Amethyst in a
Fantasy Cut that we will refer to as a "Keystone". The cut is
similar to a Kite cut, except for the blunt point at the narrow end of
the stone. The concave cutting lends a peculiar sense of movement
that the stone would not otherwise possess. Simple elegant
mounting allows the stone to show you who's boss! It is $125.00.
 
African Amethyst/Brazilian Amethyst Ring.
Here is a perfect example of how Brazilian Amethyst differs from African
Amethyst. The center stone here, an Oval Cut Brazilian Amethyst
measuring 12mm x 10mm and weighing around3.75cts, is a rich medium
purple, while the Pear Cut African Amethyst accents, at about 1ct each,
and the deepest, darkest, most desirable and expensive of all Amethyst.
A wonderful contrast for the purple stone lover, it is $145.00.
 
Ametrine Emerald Cut Solitaire Ring.
This is a mid-size Ametrine, being Emerald Cut and measuring a bit over
11mm x 9mm and weighing around 4cts. The color is light, but with a
good line of delineation and a nice 50/50 split between the Amethyst and
the Citrine, equally present in this lovely solitaire. Great price for
an Ametrine this size, it is $125.00.
 
African Amethyst Emerald Cut 3-Stone Ring.
Breathtaking in person, this is a 3-stone Emerald Cut ring all done
in African Amethyst. The center stone is a Bridge Cut Emerald with
Opposed Bar Cut on top to enhance the wonderful, fiery purple flashes
emanating from this 8mm x 10mm, 3.5ct stone. The side stones are
Radiant Cut Emerald, measuring 6mm x 8mm, for about an additional 3cts
of wonderful African Amethyst, all VVS clarity. Special construction
was necessary for this ring, and it is $195.00.
 
African Amethyst Princess Cut Solitaire Ring.
In person, this is such a wonderful rich purple, with bright
flashes. It is a larger Princess Cut stone, measuring 11mm x 11mm and
weighing 4.83cts. This very decorative, but also very strong and
protective mounting uses double prongs at the center point of each
plane, allowing the stone to be both completely visible and completely
secure. It is $98.00. |
