About the Item

Loose Amethyst Weight: 20.60 Carats Dimension: 17.7 x 14.9 x 12.3 Mm Colour: Purple Origin: Brazil Treatment: Non Certificate: On Demand Shape: Cushion Amethyst, a stunning variety of quartz known for its mesmerizing purple hue, has captivated humans for centuries. Its name derives from the Greek word "amethystos," which translates to "not intoxicated," reflecting the ancient belief that the stone could prevent drunkenness and promote sobriety. This belief led to the widespread use of amethyst in goblets and amulets by the ancient Greeks and Romans. Beyond its folklore and mythology, amethyst holds a rich history of cultural significance. In ancient Egypt, it was associated with protection and was often carved into charms and talismans. Similarly, in medieval Europe, it was believed to possess healing properties and was used to ward off various ailments. From a geological standpoint, amethyst forms within the Earth's crust under specific conditions. It owes its distinctive purple coloration to the presence of iron impurities and irradiation during its formation process. The intensity of its hue can vary from pale lilac to deep violet, with some specimens exhibiting exquisite clarity and brilliance. Amethyst deposits are found worldwide, with notable sources including Brazil, Uruguay, Zambia, and Russia. Each location produces stones with unique characteristics, contributing to the diverse range of amethyst available on the market. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, amethyst is highly valued in the metaphysical community for its purported spiritual properties. It is often associated with the crown chakra, symbolizing higher consciousness and spiritual enlightenment. Many believe that amethyst can aid in meditation, promote emotional balance, and provide protection against negative energies. From ancient civilizations to modern enthusiasts, amethyst continues to fascinate and inspire. Whether admired for its beauty, cherished for its symbolism, or utilized for its alleged healing energies, this exquisite gemstone holds a timeless allure that transcends cultures and generations.
