The amethyst pendant matching the gemstone malas is about 4.2 x 3.0cm and made of rhodium-plated silver 925. The triangular amethyst cabochon is 3 x 3 x 3cm.
Attached to the eyelet of the amethyst pendant is a pendant with the Om symbol, a chili pod (all made of silver 925) and a rudraksha nut.
Amethyst represents inner peace in modern stone healing; the mineral is used to support alertness and awareness, as well as to strengthen judgment and constructive thinking - so amethyst is an ideal stone for mala pendants.
The gemstone mala pendant is part of the Chili Jewels "Spirit Line" collection.
The name amethyst is derived from the Greek word amethystos (counteracting intoxication) and refers to the ancestral belief that with an amethyst one would be protected against the intoxicating effects of wine and other alcohol. Spellings such as Amathyst, Amethist, Ametist, Ametyhst, Ametyst, Amnethyst, Amthyst or Amythist are therefore incorrect.
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier, I am the stone-loving founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. My career in the field of gemstones, precious stones, pearls and designer jewelry only began relatively late.
Originally, my attention was focused on collector's minerals, then on polished stone products such as tumbled stones, etc. Later, drilled stones were added, which, worn on a leather strap, were the first jewelry we offered. With the establishment of our office in Bali, Indonesia in 2001 and shortly afterwards our office and company in Hong Kong, I created the basis for integrating many of my favorites such as special crystals, specially cut, rare gemstones, free-form cabochons, beads and pearls into my own jewelry.
Chili Jewels® is our professional brand for the specialist trade with low wholesale prices and outstanding offers from our own production of silver jewelry, stone jewelry, necklaces and bracelets with real stones.
