A candle holder cut from a natural amethyst cluster, with a well drilled into the centre sized for a standard tea light. Each runs about 4 to 5 inches across and 1.5 inches tall.

Does it fit a standard tea light?

Yes. The well is drilled to take a standard tea light in its metal cup. Let the stone cool fully before you handle it or clear the wax.

Where does it come from?

Minas Gerais, Brazil, cut at a cooperative there.

Is the stone treated?

No. The amethyst is natural and untreated. A lot of amethyst on the market is heat-treated or irradiated, so it is worth asking anywhere you buy.

Will mine look exactly like the photo?

No. Each holder is cut from its own section of cluster, so the depth of purple, the size of the points, and the outline all vary. Yours will be a similar piece from the same lot.

How do I care for it?

Wipe with a soft dry cloth and clear wax from the well once it has cooled. Keep it out of extended direct sunlight, which can fade the purple over time.

What does a crystal grade (A, AA, or AAA) actually mean?

Crystal grades reflect visual quality within a single batch. Grade A is standard quality with typical inclusions. Grade AA shows stronger color saturation, cleaner surface, and tighter sizing. Grade AAA represents the top 10 to 15 percent of any batch: exceptional clarity, consistent color, and minimal surface variation. At Beyond Bohemian, grades are assessed by Paul Oliver at point of purchase.

Will I receive the exact piece shown, or one chosen from your stock?

For bulk listings sold by weight or piece count, you receive pieces from the same batch shown in the photos. Each piece is hand-selected at the time of packing. For unique specimens listed individually, you receive the exact piece photographed. The listing will specify which applies.

How do I know this crystal is ethically sourced?

Beyond Bohemian traces each stone as far up the supply chain as possible and is transparent when that tracing has limits. We work with small-scale operations and family-run suppliers wherever we can verify fair compensation. You can ask about any specific piece and we will tell you what we know and what we do not.

What is the return policy?

Beyond Bohemian accepts returns within 90 days of purchase. Items must be in original condition. Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. Contact us before returning so we can confirm eligibility and provide instructions.

Beginner Friendly: Yes
Treatment Awareness: Medium (heat treatment, irradiation possible)

Amethyst is quartz coloured violet by trace iron and natural irradiation, grown inside the gas pockets of ancient Brazilian lava flows. Cut into a candle holder, the flat base steadies the piece while the crystal points across the top are left exactly as they formed.

These come from a cooperative in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Each one is cut from its own section of cluster, so no two match in colour depth, point size, or outline.

Worth knowing: a lot of the amethyst on the market is heat-treated or irradiated. These are natural, and the purple you see is the purple the stone grew with.

Amethyst is traditionally a stone for quiet, steady calm, winding down at the end of a day, and settling into rest. It is linked to the third eye and crown chakras.

As a candle holder it lives where you slow a room down, which suits the stone's character. How you use it is up to you.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
