Amethyst Tumble Beads

Amethyst is the most highly valued stone in the Quartz group. It is the second most available mineral on Earth which means it is highly used in the making of building materials, such as; glass and ceramics and also as a decorative stone. Most precious and semi-precious gemstones are measured by weight, however, Amethyst is determined by its vibrant colours. The rarest shade of Amethyst is known as a 'Deep Russian' and is so rare that the price depends on the demand for it.
