About This Amethyst

Amethyst has the kind of purple that draws you in without trying. Some pieces are pale lavender, others are deep violet, and the best ones catch light through the crystal structure so they seem to glow from the inside.

Sourced directly from Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar. Worth knowing: a lot of the amethyst on the market is heat-treated and irradiated. What we carry is natural and untreated.

From Greek 'a-methystos' meaning 'not drunk', ancient Greeks believed amethyst prevented intoxication and carved drinking vessels from it.

Traditionally Used For

In crystal traditions, amethyst is often associated with quiet, steady calm, winding down and settling into rest, and a simple anchor during practice. It's traditionally linked to the third eye and crown chakras. If that resonates, set it in front of you during meditation or quiet reflection. Work with it the way that fits your own practice.

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

Care and Use

Sensitivity Low

Amethyst sits at 7 on the Mohs scale, harder than a steel blade, so it handles daily carry and a quick rinse without fuss. The one thing that hurts it is sunlight: months in a bright window will fade the color, and it does not come back.

Do

  • Wipe Dry
  • Quick Rinse Only
  • Store Protected
  • Gentle Soap Only
  • Stable Room Temperature

Avoid

Questions Before You Buy

Is this real amethyst, and is it heated, dyed or treated?

Natural amethyst from Alaotra-Mangoro, Madagascar. No. These are natural, untreated amethyst crystals. The color has not been artificially enhanced. Note: some amethyst on the market is heated to produce citrine color, but these pieces remain in their natural state.

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.

What size are the pieces, and how many are in a pound?

Each piece measures 1 to 2 inches on its longest side and weighs 20 to 50 grams. About 12 to 20 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.

What does A grade mean?

A grade raw amethyst has good color and natural form with some variations in saturation, minor surface irregularities, or phantom zones common in natural material. These are genuine rough crystals, not polished or enhanced. Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.

Where does it come from, and how do you know?

These raw crystals are from Madagascar, which produces amethyst ranging from light lavender to deeper purple tones, often with good natural crystal form. It came to us through a community partnership, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
