Some amethyst is pale lilac; this Uruguayan geode is the dark, saturated kind.
The close up photo lets you study the crystals, and the semi polished rim gives them a smooth, shiny frame. A metal stand holds it upright, so it can go straight onto a console, a meditation shelf or a bedroom dresser without any fuss. One look at the backside and side views shows the full shape before you buy. It suits an amethyst lover adding a showpiece, or a February birthday where you want the gift to last.
About Uruguayan Amethyst
Artigas in northern Uruguay and the neighboring Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul are among the largest amethyst producers in the world. There the amethyst grows as a crop of crystals inside hollow, agate lined cavities in volcanic rock. Amethyst itself is purple quartz, colored by trace iron exposed to natural radiation, and it is hard and durable.
Stone Meaning: Amethyst is traditionally associated with calm and balance.
