Marilla's Amethyst Brooch
"Oh Marilla, I think it's a perfectly elegant brooch. I think amethysts are just lovely. That’s what I used to imagine diamonds were like.... Do you think amethysts can be the souls of good violets?” - Anne of Green Gables
Marilla Cuthbert's exquisite amethyst brooch is one of the most fondly remembered elements of L.M. Montgomery's cherished novel. When the brooch goes missing in the story, Anne is accused of taking it. Despite being innocent, she confesses to Marilla that she lost it. Marilla is beside herself with anger and recriminations. When Marilla's gentle brother, Matthew, finds the brooch, Marilla quickly realizes that Anne was telling the truth in the first place. Marilla and Anne reconcile and come to better respect each other through the incident. This timeless image of trust and forgiveness is an heirloom to be passed down from one generation to the next.
This handcrafted jewelry made exclusively for Shop at Sullivan contains an authentic vintage czech glass stone that sparkles with the color and clarity of a brilliant amethyst. This brooch is an original jewelry design by Ellabelle Boutique, and is inspired by the "amethyst brooch" worn by actress Colleen Dewhurst in Anne of Green Gables based on the novel by author L.M. Montgomery.
