The best quality amethyst comes from Uruguay. The crystals are smaller than the Brazilian pieces, but have a wonderful deep purple color. A very intense stone!
The size of the mini amethyst segments in this flat is approx. 3 x 3 cm.
30 amethyst segments in a box.
The name amethyst is derived from the Greek word amethystos (counteracting intoxication) and refers to the traditional belief that an amethyst protects against the intoxicating effects of wine and other alcohol. Spellings such as Amathyst, Amethist, Ametist, Ametyhst, Ametyst, Amnethyst, Amthyst or Amythist are therefore incorrect.
