3mm Natural Round Amethyst Beads - per 15" Strand (approx 119 beads)  Hole size 0.8mm.

Make a royal statement! This regal gemstone traditionally adorned the robes and crowns of rich and powerful monarchs. Because purple is the color associated with wealth and prosperity, amethyst is still considered a prosperous stone--so wear it boldly. Chunky amethyst separated by 4-inch lengths of gold chain and 6mm gold rounds worn in layered, varying lengths add rich texture to high-neck sweaters or low-cut blouses. For an earthier feel, string amethyst with amber or smoky quartz and sterling silver saucers or tubes. For a more delicate feel, combine amethyst chips or 4mm rounds with rainbow fluorite, aquamarine, rose quartz, pearls or garnet beads. The deep pinks and purples of paua shells are another dazzling complement to amethyst and make the perfect beach or poolside accessory.
