There are 3 things to consider when buying Amethyst jewelry: color, cut and clarity. Amethyst comes in variations of violet. The primary color of amethyst is purple, but it can have red and blue as secondary colors, which can range from very pronounced to virtually invisible. Lighter stones have a pinkish hue, whereas darker ones have a deep purple tone. There seems to be amethyst in a green variety, but this is incorrect. What passes for green amethyst is simply green quartz. It is true that amethyst is also a variety of quartz, but the green variety of this mineral is not technically considered amethyst. However, it is possible to turn amethyst green through heat treatment, but natural amethyst does not occur in this color. Look at the amethyst in a well-lit setting, and see if the stone looks clean and clear to the naked eye. The clearest, the better. Evaluate its cut by looking at how intense the stone’s color is. If the amethyst’s tone is well saturated and the gemstone is cut in a shape that you like, then the stone should be a good choice for you.
Value for amethysts depends almost entirely on color. Generally the darker the more valuable. Unlike Diamonds and Rubies where gemstones get exponentially more expensive the larger they are, the price of amethyst gemstones increases gradually with size. This is because unlike those other gemstones, amethyst is typically found as larger crystals so the size of the raw material isn’t a constraining factor. Typically with amethyst, the labor that goes into faceting the stone is going to represent the bulk of the price of the cut gemstone.
Amethyst is known to rule the Crown chakra, and connected to the Third Eye chakra. Amethyst has the ability to convert lower vibrations to higher frequencies, which then transforms negative energy to love energy. This provides peaceful energy, which is perfect for meditation and for developing psychic abilities.
Amethyst is said to be incredibly protective, healing, and purifying. It's claimed it can help rid the mind of negative thoughts and bring forth humility, sincerity, and spiritual wisdom. It's also said to help promote sobriety. Amethyst brings a sense of peace and calm, that makes it a great sleep and meditation gemstone.
