We hand-select our Amethyst with over 40 years of experience working with crystals, minerals and spiritual tools, choosing pieces for their colour, quality, natural formations and individual character.

Individually photographed pieces are clearly identified in their listings, so you can choose the exact crystal shown. For tumbled stones and other items offered from a selection, each listing explains how your piece will be chosen.


✨ What Is Amethyst?

Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, a naturally occurring mineral with colours ranging from pale lilac and soft lavender to rich violet and deep purple. Individual pieces may show bands or zones of lighter and darker colour, translucent areas and fascinating internal formations.

Raw Amethyst displays its natural crystal points and clusters, while polished pieces reveal different aspects of its colour, patterns and internal detail.

Amethyst is also the February birthstone, making it a meaningful choice for birthday gifts, keepsakes and personal crystal collections.

✨ Healing Properties and Energy of Amethyst

Amethyst is traditionally associated with calm, protection, emotional balance and spiritual awareness. Its energy is often described as peaceful yet protective, making it a much-loved choice for meditation, quiet reflection and creating a calming atmosphere.

Linked with the Third Eye and Crown chakras, Amethyst is traditionally chosen for awakening intuition, developing spiritual insight and deepening your connection with your spiritual path.

Amethyst is traditionally used to support:

• Calm and relaxation
• Spiritual protection
• Emotional balance and easing feelings of stress
• Meditation and quiet reflection
• Intuition and spiritual awareness
• Restful sleep and peaceful dreams
• Mental clarity and focused intention
• Third Eye and Crown chakra work

These associations belong to crystal traditions and personal spiritual practice. You may feel drawn to a particular piece through its colour, formation, symbolism or the meaning it holds for you.


🌙 Amethyst for Beginners

Amethyst is a lovely crystal to begin with because it offers so many ways to explore your own connection with crystals.

You might hold a tumbled stone during a few quiet moments, place a sphere beside your meditation space, keep a carved angel nearby or choose a geode as a focal point in a peaceful corner of your home.

There is no need to begin with a large or expensive piece. Choose an Amethyst that draws your attention and suits the way you would like to work with it.

What is the difference between an Amethyst geode, cave and cathedral?

An Amethyst geode has a crystal-lined interior. “Cave” and “cathedral” are names commonly used for opened geodes with deeper cavities or tall, upright shapes. The terms can overlap, so photographs and measurements are the best guide to the individual piece.

How should I care for my Amethyst?

Handle it carefully, protect crystal points from knocks and avoid prolonged strong sunlight or heat, which can affect its colour. A soft brush can help remove dust from natural formations. Follow the individual listing’s care guidance, particularly for specimens containing other minerals.
