Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz long admired for its beauty and spiritual associations. Its name derives from the Greek amethystos, meaning “not intoxicated,” reflecting the belief that it protected against excess. Found in many regions, including Brazil, Uruguay, and Africa, polished Amethyst Tumble Stones display shades ranging from soft lavender to deep violet, making them a favourite among collectors and energy practitioners.
