From Greek a‑methystos (\"not drunk\"); in antiquity it was linked with sobriety and carved into drinking vessels. It naturally forms in silica deposits within volcanic cavities (basalt geodes). Commercial material is typically sourced through basalt geode deposits, then carefully split and sorted. On the market: Quartz varieties are sometimes sold under trade names; watch for glass look‑alikes in jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOrigin \u0026amp; Sourcing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMadagascar's crystal trade runs mostly on artisanal mining, and we vet each supplier personally to make sure fair compensation reaches the people doing the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForms in silica deposited within volcanic cavities (basalt geodes).
