Raw Amethyst, a Glimmer in Lavender
Raw amethyst brings lavender and purple into lively contrast with dark violet, pale grey-white and tan patches. Rough, uneven surfaces give way to flatter faces, while bright reflections catch along edges above darker recesses. Its angular character feels wonderfully unpolished, with pale surface lines adding another layer to explore. Supplied as an approximately 35g pack of XXS pieces; the number of pieces varies.
Amethyst’s name comes from the Greek amethystos, reflecting an old belief about sobriety. That small thread of history offers a different way to meet the stone: through the meaning people gave its name, as well as through its colour.
In an imagined meadow at violet dusk, pale paths might wind between shadowed ridges. These shifting tones and irregular angles suggest just such a miniature landscape, with a bright edge marking the crest of a purple hill.
