In the nineteenth century, the first colors a Victorian woman was permitted to wear after her initial year of mourning were white and purple. Pearls and amethyst symbolized renewal, dignity, and a gentle return to the world after loss.

The drop pendant measures about 2.5 inches long and 25.8 millimeters across, and the necklace weighs 7.4 grams in total. The oval faceted amethyst measures approximately 5.8 by 7.7 by 4.3 millimeters and weighs about 1.02 carats, while the faceted teardrop amethyst measures roughly 7 by 11.5 by 5.2 millimeters and weighs about 2 carats.
