A custom silver ring is the obvious home for six carats of laser cut amethyst. Message us on WhatsApp to talk through ideas; asking does not commit you to anything.

In a ring, a closed-back bezel protects the edges, while claws let more light through. In a pendant, a plain silver cap works well at this weight, and the stone will not drag on a chain. Amethyst is quartz, 7 on the Mohs scale, which suits either, though a ring should be spared regular knocks. Purple also looks good in gold, so mention it if you prefer that.

The stone is a natural jamunia of 6 carats, laser cut, purple in colour, and the reference is AG-000243.

On treatment: some amethyst is heated to lighten the colour, while much of it is left as found, so ask us about this one. Browse the amethyst listings for other options, and remember that you can inspect the parcel at your door before paying.

This particular stone

This listing is one natural amethyst, known in Urdu as Jamunia, with a weight of 6 Carat. Its price is Rs. 11,250 — roughly Rs. 1,875 for each carat. Treatment: treatment not tested. Quote reference AG-000243 when you message us about it. The photographs show this exact stone, so what arrives at your door is the piece you chose on screen.

From six carats up a stone becomes the centre of attention. It wants a broader shank or a secure claw setting and suits an occasion ring, a signet or a centre pendant. Clean natural material of this size turns up far less often, and the per-carat rate reflects that.

On the Mohs scale amethyst rates 7. It handles daily wear, but a hard knock can still nick an exposed corner, so a protective setting is a sensible choice. Clean it with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and keep it away from abrasive cleaners and high heat.

Whoever you buy amethyst from, make sure of three things: the stone is natural rather than lab-grown, glass or glass-filled; any treatment is stated in writing; and the weight quoted is the weight of the finished stone. We check every amethyst for those three points before it is listed, and because you pay on delivery you can look at the stone — or have it tested — before any money changes hands.
