Checkerboard Faceted Teardrop Prasiolite and Sterling Silver Pendant with Popcorn Chain
Though “prasiolite” and “green amethyst” are used interchangeably to identify this green variety of quartz, the term “green amethyst” is a misnomer because amethysts are purple by definition. Most prasiolites are produced by heating amethysts to approximately 932 degrees Fahrenheit. This 23 millimeter light green teardrop-shaped amethyst is checkerboard faceted and set in popcorn-textured sterling silver (92.5% silver content). The pendant comes on an Italian sterling silver popcorn chain.
Chain Length: 18 inches
Weight: 10.6 grams
This is an estate item; items that are preowned may show minimal signs of wear.
