AMETHYST

Amethyst is one of the most widely recognized varieties of quartz and has been valued since ancient times. Its name comes from the Greek word amethystos, meaning “not intoxicated,” reflecting the traditional belief that it supported clear thinking and moderation.

During the medieval period, Amethyst became associated with royalty, discipline, and religious symbolism. It was commonly set into crowns, rings, and ceremonial objects, particularly within European traditions. Its deep purple colour made it a symbol of authority, refinement, and status.
