18ct White Gold, Amethyst & Diamond Oval Cluster Ring

400/O
Written by Olly Gerrish

A good 18ct white gold ring that was made in London in 1984. It has been set with an amethyst surrounded by small diamonds. The amethyst is a good rich purple with hints of red in certain lights. Amethyst is a semi-precious stone in today’s classifications, but to the ancients, it was a “Gem of Fire”  a Precious Stone worth, at times in history, as much as a Diamond.  Amethyst has always been associated with February, the month the Romans dedicated to Neptune, their water-god. Therefore, it should be no surprise that it is the traditional birthstone of that month. It is the stone of St. Valentine and faithful love and signifies ecclesiastical dignity as the Bishop’s Stone. A lovely ring to wear.
