Raw Amethyst Points by the Pound - Uruguay Amethyst

Light lilac to deep grape purple, these raw amethyst points come from Uruguay, one of the largest amethyst producers. Buy them by weight: a quarter pound holds about 20 points, give or take, and the half pound and full pound bags scale up from there.

They suit wire wrapping, because each natural point already has a crystal tip to show off. Use them in crystal grids, fill a bowl or vase, tuck them into plant pots, or set a few on a meditation table. Buying by the pound keeps the price per point low, which makes this a practical choice for jewelry makers, crafters and anyone sharing crystals as gifts or party favors.

Every point is a natural crystal, so size, shape and color vary from piece to piece. If you want them for jewelry, sort the bag by size and color first, then pair similar points for earrings. Amethyst is hard enough for everyday handling, but keep finished pieces out of strong direct sunlight, which can fade the purple over time.
