My Holy Grail color combination for jewelry is green and purple. It's almost impossible to find without spending a fortune at a place that specializes in color such as Kiki McDonough. (Her pieces are crazy expensive for semi-precious, although I do have some.)
Anyway, I never see amethyst and peridot together - really, never. I've been looking for a peridot and amethyst item for about four years. So I really pounced when I saw this ring.
It's a step-cut peridot flanked by trapezoid purple amethysts, set in 14k white gold. The setting is weighty and substantial. I bought it recently at a small independent jeweler's in a rural town I was visiting.
Later, I realized that it's the suffragette colors: green, purple, and white. Just looked it up: Purple for dignity and loyalty, green for hope, white for purity.
I call it my anti-man ring!
