背景：这种精美的紫色石英晶体的名称来自希腊语“amethystos”，字面意思是“戒酒药”。在古代，人们相信这种宝石可以让佩戴者保持清醒，无论他喝了多少酒。所有伟大的古代文明都珍视这种宝石；它在埃及特别受欢迎，用于制作圣甲虫，在希腊和罗马则用于雕刻戒指。由于它的颜色像酒一样深，可以用来防止醉酒，所以很多戒指上都雕刻着酒神狄俄尼索斯的头像。英国王室珠宝中最古老的宝石是一颗紫水晶，最早由忏悔者爱德华于 11 世纪佩戴。即使在今天，高级神职人员的戒指也经常以紫水晶为中心石。这种宝石具有许多神奇的治疗功效：它可以治疗痛风，清除体内的杂质，保持头脑清醒和警觉并提高记忆力，让佩戴者做美梦并使他们免受感染和传染病的侵害。
状况：每颗珠子都有些不规则，这是由于其制作过程中采用了手工抛光工艺所导致的。穿线孔周围有磨损痕迹，但磨损程度不大，不会影响其外观。总体而言，它们完好无损，状况非常好。项链已重新穿线，采用现代金色 S 形钩扣，符合古代设计。
尺寸：长度：20 英寸（51.30 厘米）
