What it is
Gemstone Amethyst Gold & Silver Plated Pendants (6 assorted) is a pendant featuring amethyst, made to be worn every day or kept for special occasions.
Materials and size
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.
African amethyst is often a deeper, more saturated purple than Brazilian material. Chevron amethyst shows bands of purple and milky white quartz in a V-shaped pattern.
Traditional uses
In contemporary crystal work many people choose a stone for what it symbolises to them and wear it as a reminder of an intention. Wearing stones as amulets is ancient; Egyptian, Greek and Roman jewellery commonly carried stones said to protect or bring luck. 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. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.
How to use it
- Wear it as a daily reminder of an intention.
- Take it off before swimming, bathing or exercise.
- It pairs traditionally with selenite or clear quartz.
- Everyday idea: wear it on the wrist you notice most, so each glance is a reminder of your intention.
- Stacking idea: bracelets of different stones stack well; mix textures, such as chips with round beads.
- Gifting idea: jewellery is the classic birthstone gift; check the recipient's birth month first.
Care
- Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; skip soaps, salt and long soaks. Strong sunlight can fade amethyst over time, so show it out of direct sun.
- Remove before showering or swimming, and keep away from perfume and lotions.
Who it suits
Best for anyone who loves amethyst, or gift-givers looking for something personal.
