Trapiche Amethyst Solid 925 Sterling Silver Pendant

Trapiche Amethyst Solid 925 Sterling Silver Pendant     Description: This exceptional pendant features a natural Trapiche Amethyst, a rare variety of quartz displaying distinct geometric zoning. Formed deep within hydrothermal veins, trapiche amethyst develops when mineral impurities and growth interruptions create the striking star-like segmentation visible in the crystal.   This particular piece originates from the Minas Gerais region of Brazil, one of the few known localities producing gem-quality trapiche formations. The stone’s deep violet core contrasts beautifully with pale quartz and smoky inclusions, producing a natural pattern that appears almost faceted within the stone itself.   Set in solid 925 sterling silver, the freeform cut highlights the gem’s unique geometry. The bezel setting with a polished bail ensures durability while allowing light to reveal the intricate internal zoning from every angle.   Details:   * Gemstone: Natural Trapiche Amethyst (untreated) * Origin: Minas Gerais, Brazil * Formation: Zonal crystal growth with natural trapiche segmentation * Metal: Solid 925 Sterling Silver (not plated) * Shape: Freeform polished cabochon * Setting: Bezel with open-back frame * Size: Approx. 1.75 inches including bail * Finish: High-polish artisan craftsmanship
