Cape Amethyst Faceted Pear Beads have a vitreous luster and good polish with internal feathering. The gems are symmetrical with excellent faceting and bodies are a transparent deeply saturated purple hued Amethyst and semi-translucent white hued Milky Quartz, exhibiting a softly defined chevron or houndstooth shaped pattern making for a lovely strand of Cape Amethyst Beads.
