Koh-I-Noor Greek Amethyst ring

Tax excluded.

Sale price€4.150
A ring centred around a pale, freeform-cut amethyst whose soft faceting catches the light with restraint. Pippa Small preserves the natural character of the stone—its inner shifts, its gentle irregularities—allowing the gem to feel both refined and organic. The 18k yellow gold (750/1000) matte bezel enhances its clarity while giving the piece a grounded, sculptural quality. A luminous design for those drawn to clean volumes and the expressive nature of hand-cut stones.

What is this piece made of?

This piece contains: Yellow gold Amethyst

Yellow gold

Gold has long been celebrated for its warmth, its glow and its remarkable versatility. Yellow gold, in particular, is the metal in its most traditional expression — the colour that traverses centuries and civilisations. Designers sculpt it, texture it, hammer it or set it with diamonds and coloured stones, revealing a material that is both noble and endlessly adaptable. China, Australia and Russia remain today the world’s leading gold producers. Yet the limited ethical regulations governing extraction have long cast a shadow over its use in jewellery. This is why the Fairmined label was created in 2004: to guarantee the traceability of gold and ensure its positive impact on social development and environmental protection. Thanks to this certification, gold can now be considered “clean”, as opposed to conflict gold or gold extracted using harmful processes. Used since prehistory, gold was one of the first coloured metals mastered by ancient metallurgists. In Egypt, it was collected in small quantities along the Nile and elevated through religious ornamentation. Later, European conquistadors seized its value, while the American Gold Rush shaped an entire region of the West. Today, gold still plays a central economic role and is traded on major international exchanges. In its pure form, however, it remains too soft to be used alone in jewellery. It must be alloyed with other metals, measured in karats. The French market recognises 9k, 14k and especially 18k gold — the latter composed of 75% pure gold, ideal for its durability, stability and non-allergenic properties. 22k gold, intensely yellow and emblematic in India, is also used by certain designers.

Amethyst

The purple colour of amethyst has inspired stories for centuries. Its name comes from the Greek a-methustos, meaning “not intoxicated,” and is linked to the legend of the nymph Amethystos. To protect her from the unwanted advances of Dionysus, god of wine, she was turned into rock crystal; enraged, Dionysus spilled his cup of wine over her, staining the stone with a deep violet hue. Once considered rare in antiquity, amethyst was later discovered in large deposits in Brazil and Mexico, and subsequently in Belgium, France, Madagascar, Finland and Canada. Admired by the Etruscans and Egyptians for its ornamental beauty, it remained for centuries a material reserved for royalty and high religious figures. Today, its colour and luminosity make it a favourite among designers such as Ivarene, Dorette and Lena Skadegard. Across various cultures, amethyst is associated with symbolic meanings. Some traditions believe it can help ease fear, stress or anger, and support a sense of calm or clarity. It is also sometimes linked with ideas of purification.
