The composition is dominated by a substantial oval <b>amethyst</b>, displaying a rich and luminous violet-purple coloration. Its smooth polished surface allows the depth and natural tonal variations of the quartz to become the principal visual element of the jewel. Positioned above the amethyst is a contrasting oval <b>citrine</b>, introducing a warm golden-yellow accent against the cool violet tones below. The pairing of these two natural quartz varieties creates a sophisticated interplay of color while giving the pendant an immediately recognizable character. The gemstones are framed by carefully worked <b>950 silver</b>. Symmetrical scroll motifs surround the upper stone, while fine twisted borders emphasize the form of the amethyst. The lower section tapers into an elegant pointed silhouette, giving the composition a refined sense of proportion and vertical movement. Every component has been individually formed, assembled, set, and finished by hand.
