Polished Amethyst Crystals
A unique collection of natural amethyst crystals from our collection of rocks and minerals.
Although these crystals may look very similar, each piece is unique. The one characteristic they all have in common is a slight variation in colour.
Some are subtly included with what I believe is citrine.
The range of colour in which amethyst occurs varies from subtle lilac to deep purple. Colour-zoning, a common characteristic of amethyst, means the colour is not uniform throughout the stone.
Amethyst is sensitive to heat and UV light, so prolonged exposure can cause its colour to fade.
Please bear in mind that these carvings are cut from natural crystal. It's common for minor imperfections to be left untouched to minimise how much crystal is lost during polishing.
