The Amethyst Queen mining area, located South of Grand Junction, Colorado, is once again under claim and is producing very nice clusters of Amethyst crystals combined with many other associated minerals. This Amethyst is different in that it tends to be lighter in color than the Arizona, Brazil or Uruguay Amethyst, and therefore easily identifiable. There is also substantial color-zoning in this material causing a gradual change from almost clear White Quartz to dark purple, and everything in between within each individual crystal. As such, each of these gems is quite beautiful and unique.
In this Pendant, we used a pink or light purple shade of that Amethyst and cut an 8x6mm oval gemstone. We set it in Sterling Silver and added a 2mm round Colorado Aquamarine for a beautiful pastel color Pendant,
For this Pendant, we recommend an 18” Light Curb Sterling Silver Chain, #1165.
We'll be shipping this item along with an attractive Gift Box, matching tote bag, and crinkled paper. You'll be ready to present this gift in only a few minutes. All buttoned up, pretty, and sophisticated.
Amethyst is the February Birthstone.
Aquamarine is a March Birthstone. It is also the Colorado State Gemstone.
