Question 1

Why may the purple shades of amethyst stones differ?

Accepted Answer

The colour intensity of natural amethyst depends on the iron and aluminium content in the mineral, as well as the degree of natural irradiation. This is why some stones are a lighter and others a darker shade of purple — this is normal and characteristic of a natural material.

Question 2

Is raw amethyst a suitable material for jewellery making?

Accepted Answer

Yes, raw amethyst stones are suitable for wire wrapping and other handmade jewellery techniques. If you prefer a polished form for jewellery, it is worth choosing the polished amethyst variant.

Question 3

How can the purple colour of amethyst be preserved?

Accepted Answer

Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, as UV light can fade the purple hue over time. Stored in a dark, dry place, the colour can be preserved for a long time.
