Checkerboard-cut amethyst catches light differently than a standard facet pattern. Each checkerboard-cut amethyst hangs beneath a hand-forged twisted sterling silver circle, a small nod to continuity and connection that also adds real texture and movement to the design. Warm 22K gold bezels frame the stones, offering rich contrast against the oxidized silver underneath.
Finished with 18K yellow gold earwires, the whole composition reads as classic Michael Jensen: sculptural, mixed-metal, and built with enough motion to catch the eye. The precisely faceted amethyst surfaces create real depth as they move, so the color shifts a little with every turn of your head.
This is a strong pick for someone who wants gemstone color with actual craftsmanship behind it. The purple is vivid, and the handforged silver circle gives the pair a point of view you won't find in a mall store showcase. Works well for daily wear or as a gift for a birthday, anniversary, or any milestone.

FAQ
Will the color I see on my screen match the earrings in person?
Checkerboard-cut amethyst has real depth and brilliance that can shift a bit depending on the light hitting it, and your monitor adds its own variation on top of that. Screen settings, video cards, and browsers can all affect color slightly, so the earrings you receive may look a bit different than what you see here. By purchasing, you're acknowledging that possibility. If you'd like a true look before buying, we're happy to walk you through it over video chat.
