AMETHYST

Amethyst is a famous gemstone known as the purple gemstone. It is a purple variety of gemstone from the quartz family and has been used as personal embellishments for over 2000 years. Massive deposits of amethyst in South America and Africa provide enough,

hence the material’s price is relatively low enough that most people can easily afford compared to other precious and rare varieties of gemstones.

Because of its durability Amethyst is used to produce faceted stones, cabochons, beads and tumbled stones

and many other items for jewellery such as rings, earrings, pendant, bracelets and other decorative use.

Amethyst is known as the Birthstone of February and is also the gem for the 6th Anniversary.

The Roman Catholic bishops traditionally have their episcopal ring set with an amethyst. It is a powerful and protective stone.

Amethysts assists in remembering dreams and relieves insomnia.
