Want amethyst that reads dark and moody instead of bright purple? Black amethyst is the answer, and this cluster rises tall on a black metal stand.
The color runs from deep purple to nearly black, and the close up photos show the druzy surface and the detail along the crystals. Standing about 11.5 inches tall, it has the height to hold a spot on a console, a sideboard or an office credenza by itself, and the stand keeps it upright and lifted, so it looks finished from across the room. Black amethyst is a trade name for amethyst darkened by mineral inclusions, generally attributed to hematite or goethite, so you are still getting an amethyst cluster. A photo next to a ruler and another in hand make the size easy to judge. It suits a modern or monochrome room, and a dark crystal is a welcome change for someone whose shelves already hold plenty of lighter purple. The cluster and stand you see are exactly what ships.
The cluster is about 11.5 inches tall, 5.75 inches wide and 4.25 inches deep.
About Black Amethyst
Black amethyst is a trade or descriptive term rather than a separate mineral. It is amethyst, the purple variety of quartz, whose very dark color is generally attributed to hematite or goethite inclusions, and some material may be irradiated. Dark amethyst of this kind is reported from Brazil, Uruguay and India.
Stone Meaning: Black amethyst is traditionally associated with grounding and stability.
