Faceted Amethyst Bead - Large Top Side Drilled Pendant

Facets cut into this large amethyst bead catch the light and show off its purple color. It measures about 36 to 38 millimeters by 23 to 28 millimeters and is drilled side to side near the top.

The 2 millimeter hole fits jump rings and fine wire, so it is quick to turn into a statement pendant. Wear it on a chain or cord, or use it as the centerpiece of a beaded necklace. It is a meaningful gift for February birthdays.

Amethyst is hard and durable for everyday wear; keep it out of strong direct sunlight, which can fade the color over time. Each bead varies slightly in size and shade.
