Yellow gold would bring a warm contrast to its purple color, while white gold or silver would offer a cooler look. A bold cocktail ring or an elegant brooch would be another way to make this natural gemstone your own. For jewelry makers planning a setting, the full measurements matter: this amethyst is 8.59 mm deep, so allow enough room beneath the stone. Ask your jeweler to check any semi-mount for fit. If you are considering it for a promise ring or engagement ring, choose a protective design and be prepared to remove it during hands-on activities to help prevent damage. For a gem collector, it also offers the pleasure of enjoying a substantial faceted gemstone before deciding how—or whether—to set it.
