Amethyst, a contemporary designer jewelry boutique, located in the heart of downtown Bethesda, held its grand opening and ribbon-cutting last week. The Greater Bethesda-Chevy Chairman Chamber of Commerce Chairman Jerry Morenoff welcomed Amethyst owners Amy Hugo and Angela Malkin.<\/p>\n
Hugo and Malkin are excited to bring a fresh and unique jewelry store to Bethesda. Amethyst is an intimate boutique featuring contemporary fine jewelry from a number of talented designers selected for their artistic passion and distinctive look. Amethyst is founded for the individual who prefers fine chic jewelry from small designers as opposed to mass-produced brands. <\/p>\n
Located at 4806 Bethesda Ave., in the old Sandra’s Fine Jewelry, Amethyst provides customers with a welcoming retail experience. Customers may choose from a well-edited selection of fashion-forward jewelry or work with one of our designers to create a custom piece. Throughout the year, Amethyst will host designer personal appearances and trunk shows providing our customers the opportunity to meet and work with top designers from around the world.<\/p>\n
