This one of a kind piece was inspired by the story of Bacchus and Amethyst.
Mythology tells of an irritated Bacchus (the god of wine) cursing the next person to
cross his path, vowing they would be devoured by lions. As Fate would have it, the
unlucky soul was a beautiful and innocent Amethyst, who, upon seeing the lions
charging her, prayed to Diana for assistance. Diana turned her to alabaster, thus
saving her from the lions' violence. Realizing he had ended a pure, young life ,
Bacchus poured his deep-colored wine over the alabaster, turning it a shade of
purple we now call amethyst. 4" long, large disc is 2" wide. On 16" sterling chain.
Fine Silver, Amethyst
