Image description

Of girandole design, each set with three pear-shaped amethyst drops to the diamond foliate motif and octagonal amethyst and diamond cluster surmount, mounted in silver and gold The State inventory of 1925 described these eight amethysts as 'evidently the first procured in the Ural, about 1750-1760'.
