King’s Guard Amethyst Ring

Fit for a king, this jaw-dropping ring is set with amethyst and turquoise atop a gold-plated base. The word “amethyst” comes from a Greek word meaning, “not drunken,” since amethyst was considered an antidote to the effects of alcohol. As such, the stone was commonly used in the crafting of wine goblets. While history does not seem to support the theory, as with all Gypsy pieces, it makes for a fantastic symbolic and conversational piece! Handcrafted in Istanbul. Individually oxidized to achieve its distinctive color. Tone will vary. Materials: 18-24k gold plated brass, amethyst, turquoise. Measurements: width 1″, height 1″, weight 1.5oz.
