History of Amethyst jewellery

Amethyst jewellery has been around for centuries and has been worn by many powerful women throughout history. In ancient Greece, amethyst was believed to ward off drunkenness and was often used in drinking vessels. In fact, the word “amethyst” comes from the Greek word “amethystos,” which means “not drunken.” In fact, many cultures and religions around the world have viewed amethysts as one of the most sacred stones in all history. The gemstone was also highly valued in Egypt, where it was often used in jewellery and amulets. In the Middle Ages, amethyst was believed to have healing properties and was used to treat a variety of ailments. Today, amethyst jewellery is still highly sought after for its beauty and its supposed ability to promote calmness and balance.

Amethyst is found deposited deep in rock cavities and mined in caves throughout the world. Nearest to home, Brazil is the top producing country of amethyst, with Uruguay a close second. South American amethysts are typically larger than other varieties of the semi-precious stone. Some are so large, in fact, that you could stand inside of one of the geodes. These geodes are often found in mines and in volcanic deposits. Large, amethyst-lined geodes are a feature of the basalts of the Paraná and Etendeka traps found in Brazil, Uruguay and Namibia. The original basalt flows occurred 136 to 132 million years. The colour variety is the result of the combination of iron and manganese. Iron affects the stone's colour intensity and manganese is the source of the colour purple.

Additionally, wearing amethyst jewellery can help you tap into your spiritual side and connect with your inner self, allowing you to unleash your inner Power. Power, wealth, and royalty were often associated with the colour purple. In fact, the British adorned the crowns of royal family members with radiant amethyst jewellery. However, there is also a spiritual connotation as the semi-precious stone is often compared with Christ with the deep purple colour believed to symbolize Christ's agony in the crucifixion. Amethyst beads are also used in during meditation, with Tibetan Buddhists linking the spiritual quality of amethysts with Buddha.

Wearing complementary colours with Amethyst jewellery

One of the best ways to unleash your inner power with Amethyst jewellery is to pair it with complementary colours. Amethyst is a versatile stone that can be paired with a range of colours, but some hues work better than others. For example, you can create a sophisticated look by teaming up this gem with outfits in solid beige, pastel shades, yellows as well as orange and lime green.

Residue can build up on your rings from soap, lotion and even dead skin. Residue is especially noticeable under stones and in deep texture or engravings. This is easy to fix with a basic cleaning. However, do not clean your creations with an ultrasonic jewellery cleaner or abrasive fabrics.

It is a good practice to wipe body oils, makeup and hair spray from jewellery after each wearing.

Clean your jewellery after each wearing with a soft cloth before putting it away. This will remove the oils from your skin and debris picked up throughout the day and helps prevent discolouration. To clean amethyst jewellery, simply use a soft cloth, periodically you can wipe with warm soapy water. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or cleaners that could damage the stone.

When not wearing your jewellery store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Store your gemstone jewellery separately as the pieces may scratch each other. Small cloth pouches are ideal.

Not only is it a beautiful and mesmerizing stone, but it is also believed to have spiritual and emotional benefits. Wearing amethyst jewellery can help to calm the mind, reduce stress and anxiety, and promote a sense of inner peace and tranquillity.
