The so-called "whiplash line" is one of the defining hallmarks of the Art Nouveau style. Here, the whiplash curves in a graceful arabesque around a sparkling gemstone and entwines around your finger. The Arabesque Ring is dainty and elegant when worn alone; but this slender stacking ring is designed to nestle closely with one or more accompanying bands. This sparkly amethyst and sterling silver ring is handcrafted and made to order. Wear it by itself, or customize a stack of skinny bands and coordinating gemstone rings - the possibilities to mix and match are endless. In Greek mythology, the nymph Amethystos refused the attentions of Dionysus, the god of wine and intoxication. Thus, in ancient times, the gem which bears her name was believed to ward off drunkenness. It is also believed to increase intuition and psychic abilities, and is used in meditation to promote a clarity of vision and clear-thinking. Because of amethyst's rich royal color, in medieval Europe it was associated with monarchs and the rich and powerful. Amethyst is a variety of quartz and occurs in shades ranging from lavender to deep violet. Amethyst is the birthstone for February, as well as the traditional gift for a 6th wedding anniversary.
