What is this stone?

Amethyst is purple quartz. Its pointed crystals and violet shades can vary from specimen to specimen. A picture alone cannot establish authenticity.

A meaning you can make your own

Could amethyst help you switch off? Treat it as a reminder, rather than a sleep treatment: put your phone aside, notice its color and write down one thing that can wait until tomorrow. The useful part is the pause you choose.

How to care for it

  • For a known, untreated piece, use warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
  • Avoid steam and sudden temperature changes.
  • Keep it away from prolonged intense light.

Before you buy

Decide whether you want a smooth pocket stone, a display cluster or jewelry. Check the size against a ruler, ask about treatments and look at the exact item rather than only a sample photo.
