The amethyst is known as "the all purpose stone" - one that is protective that helps to relieve stress and anxiety in the life of the wearer. It is also the birthstone for the month of February. The amethyst on this pendant is a rich, dark purple color - so deep and lovely!

A deep purple amethyst briolette dangles from a handcrafted filagree made from gold wire. The chain is attached directly to the filagree, so the clasp will stay put and not move to the front of the necklace. A beautiful, unique necklace that will surely receive many compliments!

WHAT IS GOLD FILLED?
We used to have just 2 choices: pure gold or gold plated. The first was very expensive, and the second was…well…not very good.

Our gold filled jewelry is designed to last you a lifetime without the price of solid gold pieces. Instead of a thin layer of gold that can be easily scratched, gold filled jewelry is made with multiple layers which means they will still sparkle for years to come.

We are proud of our products. If you have a question or a special request, please reach out. We’d love to hear from you!

 

Our Handcrafted Jewelry

Our jewelry is not made in a factory and won't look like they are factory made. The pieces in our STV jewelry collection have been handcrafted with care and attention. They were created using gold filled wire, and then shaped with hammering or wire wrapping techniques. Each bracelet, ring, necklace, or earring will have its own distinctive look. The curves, swirls and unique shapes provide your piece with its own individual story.

Ring Sizing

Because most of our jewelry pieces are handcrafted using gold filled wire, resizing of our finished rings is not possible (unless you have contacted us and we are making a custom piece for you).

At STV Jewelry, our ring sizes follow the US chart. You can measure your ring size in a number of ways. Click here to view our ring sizing guide to assist you in finding out your correct ring size.


Care Instructions

How to Care for Gold Filled Jewelry

Caring for gold filled jewelry is not too much different from caring for other types of jewelry. Here are our top tips:
  • Avoid wearing your gold filled jewelry in the ocean, swimming pools, or hot tubs, as the salt water and chlorine can cause damage.
  • Keep your gold filled jewelry as dry as possible and away from humidity.
  • Avoid wearing your gold filled jewelry when working out. Exposure to the salt from sweat can cause your pieces to become dull.
  • Wearing your pieces in the shower/bath is fine as long as you are drying them off afterwards.
  • Remove your jewelry before sleeping to avoid any accidental yanking that may happen while sleeping.
  • Be aware that hairspray, creams, oils, and hand lotions may dull your gold filled jewelry due to the harsh chemicals they contain. Apply the cosmetics prior to putting your jewelry on.
  • Avoid excessive contact with sunscreen as the chemicals can be pretty harsh on most metals.
  • Gently wipe your gold filled piece occasionally with a non-scratch or jewelry polishing cloth to keep its shine.

How to Clean Gold Filled Jewelry

  • Mild soapy water/mild detergent and soft toothbrush: This will effectively remove residue or fingerprints and still leave a bright and shiny finish.
  • Soft cotton cloth: Wiping your gold filled piece with any clean, soft cotton non-scratch or jewelry polishing cloth is perfect to keep its shine.
  • Ultrasonic machine: Quickly and effectively cleans jewelry. Don’t leave the pieces in for too long (check every two to three minutes), and always ensure your cleaning solution is safe to use with gold filled jewelry. Rinse with water and dry with a soft cloth when you are finished.
