Amethyst deposits are found worldwide, with notable sources including Brazil, Uruguay, Zambia, and Russia. Each location produces stones with unique characteristics, contributing to the diverse range of amethyst available on the market.

It is often associated with the crown chakra, symbolizing higher consciousness and spiritual enlightenment. Many believe that amethyst can aid in meditation, promote emotional balance, and provide protection against negative energies. From ancient civilizations to modern enthusiasts, amethyst continues to fascinate and inspire.
