Historical & Geological Background

Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz coloured by trace amounts of iron and natural irradiation during its formation. It commonly forms in geodes within volcanic rocks, where mineral-rich fluids slowly crystallise over time to create its distinctive crystal structures.

The name amethyst comes from the Ancient Greek word “amethystos”, meaning “not intoxicated.” In Greek tradition, the stone was believed to protect against drunkenness, often used in carved drinking vessels and amulets.

Amethyst has long been associated with calmness and clarity and is often referred to as the “Stone of Tranquility” due to its popularity in decorative and historical gemstone use.
