Deep, royal purple from tip to base: this is amethyst at its richest.

Amethyst is purple quartz, coloured by traces of iron and natural radiation in the rock. These generators are cut from the darker material and polished on all six faces, with a pointed tip and a flat base. The colour can shift from grape to almost black-violet in the same piece.

Amethyst is traditionally linked with peace, calm and restful sleep. A dark point like this makes a strong focal piece on an altar or nightstand.

How to use it

• Stand it on the nightstand at bedtime
• Make it the centre of an altar or grid
• Hold it during meditation
• Pair it with clear quartz for contrast

Care: Keep it out of strong, direct sun so the deep colour doesn't fade, and dust it with a soft cloth.
