Amethyst
-
Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz composed of silicon dioxide (SiO₂).
-
It forms when quartz crystallises from silica-rich fluids, most commonly in hydrothermal veins and in cavities within volcanic rocks such as basalt.
-
Like all quartz, amethyst has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale.
-
The purple colour is caused by trace amounts of iron within the quartz crystal structure, modified by natural irradiation from surrounding rocks.
-
Most of our Amethyst is sourced directly from Brazil.
Rose Quartz
-
Rose quartz is a pink variety of quartz made of silicon dioxide (SiO₂).
-
Its colour ranges from very pale pink to medium rose and is usually evenly distributed through the stone.
-
The pink colour comes from trace elements and subtle structural features inside the quartz.
-
Rose quartz is typically translucent to opaque, with transparent pieces being uncommon but highly sought after.
-
It has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, making it durable and resistant to scratching.
-
Prolonged exposure to strong sunlight can cause the colour of some rose quartz to fade.
-
It is found in many parts of the world, with major sources including Brazil, Madagascar, Mozambique, Namibia, India, Sri Lanka, and the United States.
