Bolivian Amethyst 10mm Strand Bracelet

It's heavier than I expected and I mean that in a good way. You can feel it on your wrist - it's present without being bulky. The beads are perfectly polished, each one the same deep purple. My second BE bracelet and the quality is consistent.

The larger purple beads felt more specific after a few quiet outfits.

I wear this on every hike and it's become my favorite trail companion. There's something about holding the beads in my hand during a break in the woods - the purple against the green of the forest is just beautiful. The color is a lovely, even violet - not pale, not overly dark, just right. Each bead is so clean inside, no cracks or cloudy spots. You can tell these were carefully selected. Simple, elegant, built to actually live in.

J'ai ete surprise par la purete des pierres. Chaque perle d'amethyste est d'un violet profond et uniforme, et quand on regarde a l'interieur, c'est limpide - pas de fissures, pas d'inclusions opaques. J'avais achete un bracelet amethyste moins cher ailleurs, il etait pale et opaque a l'interieur. Celui-ci est incomparable.

Wunderschoener Amethyst - die Farbe ist satt und gleichmaessig, und die Steine sind innen sehr klar, kaum Einschluesse. Verarbeitung ist erstklassig. Ich haette mir vielleicht eine etwas kleinere Perlengroesse gewuenscht fuer mein schmales Handgelenk, aber die Qualitaet ist hervorragend.

Needed something I could wear to work without it looking out of place and also to dinners on weekends. This fits both. The deep purple reads as serious enough for professional settings but still has personality. Comfortable too - I forget I'm wearing it sometimes.

Bolivian amethyst can look too polished elsewhere. This one still feels natural.

Bought this for my mother's birthday and she hasn't taken it off since. The amethyst is a lovely rich violet - really saturated and even across all the beads. She says every bead looks so clear and clean inside. Beautiful quality that you can actually see and feel.

What got me was how clean the crystal is. No cracks, no cloudy spots - just pure, saturated purple all the way through. I bought a cheaper amethyst bracelet from another store before this one and the difference is night and day. That one was pale, almost whitish, and full of opaque inclusions inside. I never wore it. This one from BE, I wear every single day.

The bead color changes slightly with light. With a white shirt, it feels specific without becoming difficult to wear.

A lot of amethyst looks strongest near daylight and then goes flat indoors. This one does not. The violet stays deep enough under office lighting that the bracelet still feels deliberate, not like a color that only works in photos.

I was happy with it the next morning.
