AMETHYST GEMSTONE BRACELET (Heather Rose) by Gonet Designs



from the HEATHER COLLECTION
Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz and is a popular gemstone. If it were not for its widespread availability, amethyst would be very expensive. The name "amethyst" comes from the Greek and means "not drunken." The Greeks were referring to the almost wine-like color of some stones that they may have encountered. Its color is unparalleled, and even other, more expensive purple gemstones are often compared to its color and beauty. Although it must always be purple to be amethyst, it can and does have a wide range of purple shades. The color purple is traditionally the color of royalty and amethyst has been used since the dawn of history to adorn the rich and powerful monarchs and rulers. Today, amethyst is a lovely and affordable gemstone that is fortunately available in a wide variety of cut and uncut stones that we can all possess and admire.
The "Heather Rose" Designer Bracelet was inspired by the deep rich color of Purple and the Birthstone for the month of February, and with the Pink Rose Quartz Gemstones, make a robust garden treasure of color.

APATITE GEMSTONE BRACELET (Jardine)

The Great Barrier Reef stretches for more than 1,250 miles along the coast of Queensland, in northeastern Australia. Jardine Islet (Queensland), lies further north, and is breathtakingly beautiful. Spectacular golden brown sea fans with sea urchins intricately entwined, beneath a turquoise blue ocean floor background, makes an underwater photographer thrill at it's splendor. Apatite, a stone seldom found in jewelry stores and virtually unknown to the general public, is beloved by collectors for its many diverse colors and forms. Only with the recent availability of the neon blue-green variety from Madagascar, has its jewelry use increased.

The Jardine Designer Bracelet was created with Apatite smooth oval gemstones, and 925 Sterling Silver smooth round beads, and illuminating Sterling Silver bead caps from the Karen Hill Tribes. Large handcrafted Sterling Silver beads from Bali. The focal in this design, is an Artist Lampwork bead by Lynn Nurge, (Etsian), and two matching Lampwork beads from the same Artist. The bracelet is finished with a lovely Sterling Silver twisted rope design toggle clasp from the Karen Hill Tribes, and off the side of the clasp, is a pretty Sterling Silver handcrafted bead from Bali.
