Did you know this about Amethyst?
Amethyst is an alluring variation of the crystal quartz that is noted for its deep purple hue and majestic aura. This significance dates back to medieval European times where Amethyst was deemed a cardinal gem and extremely valuable, due to its royal status. The crystal dressed kings and queens alike as its nature was believed to symbolize purity of spirit and divine goodness.
Amethyst is the birthstone for the month of February. Although the crystal may have lost some of its “royal” status, Amethyst is still one of the most sought after crystals in the jewelry industry. In today’s time it is highly valued for its grounding properties. Amethyst is known to help connect to the inner self, foster spiritual awareness, and develop intuition. It is said to be a perfect stone for meditation and balance as it has a calming energy that reduces stress and anxiety.
Considering the comfort and protection that Amethyst brings, it is no surprise that the stone was once favored by those who governed. Whether for spiritual, design, or fashion reasons, Amethyst can be a stone for any life and style. For those who seek to benefit from these abundant properties, we offer many Amethyst pieces.
