Its color is as unique as it is seductive, though in fact this gemstone of all gemstones is said to protect its wearer against seduction. The amethyst is extravagance in violet.

For many thousands of years, the most striking representative of the quartz family has been a jewel coveted by princes both ecclesiastical and secular. In popular belief, the amethyst offers protection against drunkenness - for the Greek words 'amethystos' mean 'not intoxicated' in translation. A more apt stone for the month of February, particularly if there is to be plenty going on in the way of carnival celebrations, could thus hardly be wished for. A large number of further miraculous powers are attributed to the amethyst in all sorts of cultures. Gemstone therapists say that the amethyst has a sobering and cleansing effect as a healing stone. It is also esteemed as a stone of friendship.

In ancient times, amethyst was already being engraved and cut into sculptured forms.

The deposits with the greatest economic significance are in various states in southern Brazil and in neighboring Uruguay. The third major export country is Madagascar. However, this gemstone is spread all over the world.
