Amethyst Pisces Faceted Oval SS Split Band Adjustable Ring

This ring is listed as Amethyst Pisces Faceted Oval SS Split Band Adjustable Ring (shop SKU L6070), and is sold at Namaste Bookshop near Union Square.

Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, colored by traces of iron. In crystal traditions, amethyst is associated with calm and intuition. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim. The title describes it as adjustable. The title pairs it with the Pisces sign of the zodiac.

SS in the title means sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver and is often stamped .925. Like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth. The title describes a split-band ring, with a gap in the band that makes the size adjustable. The stone is listed as a faceted oval. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
