Alpine Climate

The combination of purple amethyst and white freshwater pearl is a cold one. 

Frosty, cold, thin air among tall mountains reaching to the farthest parts of the atmosphere.  You look at the air and swear that it almost looks blue.  The wildflowers that grow here have earned their existence, evolving to thrive in a harsh environment.

Petals of blue and dark purple emerge consistently every year among the rocks and snow to dot the mountainside with bursts of color among a grey backdrop.  The combination of the freshwater pearl and wire-wrapped amethyst briolette is cold and frosty, like the thin air among the mountains. 

A Freshwater coin pearl and amethyst briolette wire wrapped on sterling silver wire is strung on sterling silver chain.  This is a great necklace to wear every day or for special occasions.  For example, when you need a little pop of color and or some shimmery iridescence that only pearls can provide. 

It's a small delicate pendent that lays beautifully below the collar bone.  Consequently, the chain is thin and simple.  It's made of sterling silver with a sterling silver clasp. The freshwater pearl provides a beautiful contrast to the clear amethyst.  Therefore, it's a unique statement piece.
