Senior Jewellery Curator at theV&A, Helen Molesworth says in her book Precious writes, ‘Far from cheapening quar tz, this ubiquity has been one of the secrets of its ageless appeal’. And I think that about sums it up, amethyst has been enjoyed and worn for millennia, by ancient civilisations to modern day celebrities and royalty alike. A great example in the now famous Car tier designed amethyst bib necklace, worn by Wallis Simpson to a gala in Versailles in 1953.
