Description
Amethyst is the most cherished purple variety of quartz, admired for its rich and regal hues. The finest amethysts display a vibrant reddish-purple to deep purple with exceptional clarity and no visible colour zoning, giving the gem a luxurious glow.
Coloured naturally by iron, amethyst can be found in shades ranging from soft, transparent pastel rose to intense royal purple. As with many gemstones, quality varies by origin, and some of the most prized varieties are sourced from Siberia, Sri Lanka, Brazil, and the Far East.
Timeless and elegant, amethyst has long been a symbol of clarity, peace, and spiritual strength, making it as meaningful as it is beautiful.
