Chevron amethyst is highly regarded for its signature banded lines patterned into a “v” shape that gave the stone its name. Thanks to its sharp zones of white and purple, people consider it one of the most beautiful gems in the world. It is a result of a gradual crystallization from hydrothermal solutions. White quartz and purple amethyst are emitted during the process in geometric regularity. This piece is from Malawi. Malawian amethysts may have also brown banding influenced by iron oxides.

Special conditions/ treatment: Please do not expose amethyst to direct sunlight as its colour gradually fades.
