Oval Amethyst Solitaire Ring, 18k Yellow Gold

Women's jewelry, authenticated pre-owned luxury jewelry

Are you looking for a ring that stands out without ever being overpowering?
This solitaire ring features a oval amethyst in a luminous lilac-purple hue, held by four delicate prongs on an 18-karat yellow gold band. A piece of pre-owned jewelry that’s just as perfect for everyday wear as it is for a more formal evening.

The long necklace worn by the Princess of Wales in 2026 was given by Queen Alexandra to Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon—the future Queen Mother—as a wedding gift in 1923. After remaining in the royal vaults for decades, it resurfaced in 2012 on the neck of the Duchess of Cornwall—now Queen Camilla—for the premiere of Skyfall, before reappearing in 2026. An amethyst jewel that has been passed down from generation to generation: that’s exactly what I love about secondhand jewelry.

• A stone that captures the light: the four-prong setting allows light to pass through from all sides, making the lilac-purple color appear more vibrant.
• A subtle yet striking presence: measuring 1 cm by 1.4 cm and weighing just 3.82 g, the stone stands out without weighing down the hand.
• A second life in 18-karat gold: a durable, hallmarked metal and a gesture of circular jewelry-making.

• For everyday wear: the 0.7 cm height of its setting remains comfortable and doesn’t hinder your movements.
• With a simple outfit: paired with jeans and a white shirt, the lilac purple adds a pop of color.
• For an evening out: yellow gold adds warmth to a dressy outfit, worn alone or with a delicate ring.

Remove it when cleaning or using chlorine-based products, and clean the stone with warm soapy water using a soft brush. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, which can dull the amethyst’s purple hue.
