Amethyst, the purple variety of quartz, has been valued for centuries. The ancient Greeks revered the gem as a totem of spirituality and healing, and amethysts can be found in crown jewels and religious relics around the world. Russia was once a significant source of fine amethyst until the early 20th century. Today, major sources of amethyst include Brazil, Zambia, Uruguay and Canada with additional sources in the US and Afghanistan. Amethysts are found in several tones of purple ranging from very light to very dark.
