## Description

Small African Tumble Stones - Amethyst - Chevron is a natural amethyst piece.

From the maker: Amethyst Chevron is a combination of amethyst with white quartz, which forms the characteristic stripes or V-shapes on the stone. Often used to work with the third eye.

The Small African Tumble Stones range comes in 2 versions. If Amethyst - Chevron isn't quite right, compare Amethyst.

Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz, typically violet to deep purple. It measures 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural quartz. Colour comes from traces of iron and natural irradiation.

February's traditional birthstone is amethyst, which makes it a popular birthday gift. African amethyst is often a deeper, more saturated purple than Brazilian material.

## Traditions (belief, not health claims)

In modern crystal practice each stone carries traditional associations; these are beliefs, not health claims. Its name comes from the Greek amethystos, 'not intoxicated', and in older European tradition it was carried as a stone of sobriety and calm thinking. Today it is one of the most popular stones for a quiet corner or meditation shelf. In modern crystal tradition amethyst is linked with the crown and third eye chakra and with Pisces, Aquarius and Virgo. We share these as cultural traditions and personal beliefs only, never as health claims.

## How to use

- Keep it in a pocket, on a desk or in a crystal grid.
- Hold it during meditation as a point of focus.
- It pairs traditionally with selenite or clear quartz.
- Placement idea: a windowsill that catches the morning light (but not harsh midday sun) shows off colour and inclusions beautifully.
- Desk idea: keep it beside your keyboard as a cue to pause, breathe and look away from the screen for a moment.
- Bedside idea: some people hold a stone for a minute before sleep and set one small intention for the next day.

## Care

- Wipe with a gentle, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; keep away from soaps, salt and long soaks. Strong sunlight can fade amethyst over time, so display it out of direct sun.
- Dust lightly; check whether the stone tolerates water.
