Amethyst is a purple gemstone – a variety of quartz. The striking colour of this stone is a result of ionisation pointed at a small admixture of iron compounds in the stone’s structure. Amethyst forms inside basalt cavities, where it creates large crystals. The richest deposits of this mineral are in Brazil. This rough material comes from the Brazilian region Brejinho.

Use: Our rough stones are a beautiful interior adornment – filling up a vase, fountain or a lamp with them creates an original design. In the exterior, they may be a perfect decoration of gardens. They are also suitable for mineralogist collections and exhibitions. Rough minerals may also be further processed, e.g. small crystals are ideal material for pendants.
