About Amethyst
Amethyst was used in jewelry in Ancient Egypt. The greek phrase "a-methystos", meaning not drunk was given to this crystal because wine during this time was the color purple. Today it is still one of the most popular gemstones around.  Banded amethyst exhibits eye-catching patterns of opaque an translucent layers giving it a textured appearance with varying degrees of white banding with brown striations.
