Amethyst A symbol of serenity and strength, Amethyst bridges deep Earth processes and human spirit. From ancient lava flows to sacred rituals, its journey reflects nature’s artistry - where fire, fluid, and time shape one of the most powerful and prized crystals. Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz, which forms within geodes in volcanic rocks of the Deccan Trap. Created by silica-rich fluids in lava cavities, it's prized for jewelry, healing, and its calming, protective properties. Amazing Fact Amethyst's purple color comes from iron impurities altered by natural radiation in volcanic rocks. Source: Geological Survey of India
