Nicely strung necklace of polished amethyst stones graduate in size and hang nicely in a 22" strand with gold tone spacer beads in between each stone.  The stones range in size with the largest at 18mm long and vary in shade from pale to deep violet.  This lovely natural stone necklace is of a 1960s vintage and is strung on a wire chain with a barrel clasp.
