How to use it
This is a display specimen, meant for a shelf, cabinet, or collector's case rather than to be worn. The metal base is designed to hold the piece upright and stable for viewing.
Care & cleansing
The amethyst itself can handle a brief rinse followed by thorough drying; avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade the purple color over time. Wipe the metal base with a dry, soft cloth to keep it from tarnishing, and avoid submerging the base in water.
