Available by the strand, these beads are spherical in shape and are full of deep purple color, accented with the occasional streak of cloudy white. These beads feature a versatile size that can be used in necklaces, earrings and bracelets. Amethyst is the official birthstone of February. It forms in silica-rich liquids deposited in geodes and is generally found in clusters of crystal points. Metaphysical Properties: This stone's name is derived from the Greek word amethystos, meaning "not drunken." People of ancient times believed it to protect the wearer from drunkenness. Today, this gemstone is believed to promote happiness.
Because gemstones are natural materials, appearances may vary from piece to piece. Each strand includes approximately 34 beads. Our amethyst beads have nice, deep color, but may show natural inclusions.
