Platinum Amethyst Pendant
Item #102653Pendant Description
Amethyst Center
At the center of this design is a 1.11 carat round amethyst that displays a distinctive reflective pattern thanks to its checkerboard cut. The precise placement of the facets in this cut cause the arrangement of light and dark sections to continually change as the stone is rotated, adding a new layer of intricacy to the design. Pendants
Pendant Design
The way the three prongs holding the amethyst meet creates a lovely dynamic within this design. One prong sits at the top of the stone, right in line with where the loop connecting the pendant body to the bale emerges from the basket behind the amethyst. The other two prongs are positioned on either side of the lower portion of the stone, bringing a nice balance to the piece while still holding the amethyst securely. The triangular arrangement of these prongs creates a subtle contrast as well with the perfect curves of the stone.
The loop of metal that emerges from the top of the basket connects directly to the smooth, polished bale, which in turn, allows the spiga chain to pass directly through. The simple design of the bale allows the amethyst to take center stage in the piece without distraction, and the minimalist design of the basket protecting the back of the stone is a perfect stylistic fit with the overarching themes of the piece.

Customizing This Design
Any Joseph Jewelry item can be customized or used as the starting point for a new custom design. The gemstones, metal, proportions, setting style, surface details, and overall profile can be adjusted to better match your preferences, style, and budget.
Every custom piece begins with a conversation about what you want to create and what matters most to you. You work one-on-one with a designer to refine the concept, review the design direction, and create a detailed 3D CAD image of the item before it is made.
After the design is approved, we can create a wax model so you can review the piece physically. This step helps you evaluate scale, proportions, shape, and overall presence before final production begins.
Once the wax model is approved, our jewelers craft the finished piece with attention to structure, finish, stone security, and long-term wear. Each adjustment is reviewed carefully so the final item feels intentional, balanced, and made specifically for you.
You do not need to have every detail figured out before starting. If you like this item but want to change the stone, metal, size, shape, width, engraving, or overall style, we can guide those decisions through the custom design process.
Quality & Craftsmanship
At Joseph Jewelry, quality begins with the structure. We follow strict design and construction standards for metal thickness, weight, stone support, setting security, and long-term durability. These details help ensure the item is substantial enough for everyday wear while still maintaining a refined appearance.
We do not design custom jewelry to be unnecessarily thin or fragile. If a setting, band, gallery, or accent detail needs more support, we address it before production begins. The goal is to protect the stones, preserve the shape of the ring, and create a piece that can be worn confidently over time.
Gemstone selection is also part of our quality process. We help choose the center stone, side stones, and melee diamonds used in each ring, reviewing them for cut, color, clarity, consistency, and how well they fit the design. Even when a ring is designed around a specific budget, we maintain careful standards for the materials and craftsmanship that determine the quality of the finished piece.
Before completion, each custom piece is reviewed for proportion, comfort, stone security, finishing, and long-term wear.
Care & Warranty
All Joseph Jewelry custom pieces are supported by our lifetime warranty. We also provide long-term care, including complimentary cleaning and regular inspection, so your jewelry can be maintained properly over time.
Routine inspection is especially valuable for pieces worn every day. It allows the setting, stones, and overall structure to be checked as the jewelry is worn.
