Amethyst is undoubtedly one of the world’s best-known gemstones. Its name derives from the ancient Greek word ‘améthystos’, which means ‘sober’. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that the stone could protect against drunkenness. They therefore drank from amethyst goblets, as they were convinced that these would prevent intoxication. The oldest known deposits to date are found in Egypt (Wadi el-Hudi). Inscriptions discovered on stelae at this site refer to the goddess Hathor as the ‘Lady of Amethyst’.

It is also closely associated with the Christian tradition, which regards it as a stone of purity, piety and humility. It adorned the liturgical vestments of bishops. Alchemy regards it as a force of transformation, purification and balance between the material and the spiritual. As it is also associated with royalty, it was incorporated into the jewellery of the nobility. Even today, it adorns the Crown of England.

Amethyst is an absolute must-have in crystal healing and a remarkable cleansing stone, traditionally known for expanding consciousness and awakening spirituality. It acts as a bath of serenity and radiates a calming energy that is ideal for relieving anxiety and everyday stress, thereby promoting deep, restful sleep free from nightmares. It fosters inner harmony, contributes to emotional balance and, at the same time, opens the doors to intuition. Whether worn as jewellery or placed in the home, amethyst remains a valuable guide for all who seek wisdom and mental clarity.

Its name comes from the Italian ‘a ventura’, which means ‘by chance’ or ‘by accident’, as it resembles aventurine glass. It is said to have been discovered by accident when copper filings fell into molten glass, creating glass with a glittering effect. This discovery is said to have taken place in Murano, where the Miotti family of glassmakers kept the manufacturing secret for a long time.

Green aventurine is a variety of microcrystalline quartz; it often contains inclusions of fuchsite, haematite or mica, which give it a slightly shimmering appearance, similar to that of aventurine glass. This shimmering effect is known as aventurescence. The main deposits of aventurine are found in Brazil, China, India and France.

In crystal healing, aventurine is regarded as a stone of harmony and balance, bringing calm to those who are nervous or restless. It is said to help regulate and heal one’s emotions by fostering self-compassion, enabling a better understanding of the root causes of one’s emotional wounds. It is also said to encourage acceptance of the present situation and letting go, helping one to achieve a state of inner calm conducive to decision-making.
