The pearl promotes well-being and long life and brings happiness. It gives lustre to the eyes and guards against the torments of unrequited love, protects from the "evil eye" and grants the ability to foresee the future. A ring with a pearl guards against thieves and dishonest dealings. The lustre of the pearl depends on the health and mood of its owner. After the owner's death the stone grows dull. A ring with a pearl symbolises "tears of longing".The amethyst is a stone of lilac-violet colour, resembling heavily diluted red wine. It brings luck in the hunt and in sporting contests. It guards against drunkenness; a man wearing a ring with this stone on his finger need not fear that drink will cloud his reason. Amethyst is able to awaken love towards the giver, to replace a former love with indifference and to open the heart to a new one. Engaged or married women should beware if their beloved is given an article with this stone. The stone brings luck, peace and good fortune, calms nervous disorders and settles quarrels. Regardless of age, sex and social position, amethyst is considered a lucky stone for everyone born under the sign of Pisces. It is believed that if the sign of the Moon or the Sun is carved on the stone, it saves one from poisoning. Widowers and widows who do not intend to marry again wear amethyst as a token of eternal love for the spouse who has gone. Because of this the stone is a symbol of faithful, devoted love and is called the "widow's stone".
