Druze caves are formed when volcanic activity crystalises the inside of a Quartz cavity. This lines the pocket with a bed of tightly growing crystal points. Once extracted, the rock is cut in half to reveal the attractive crystal layer within.
Amethyst is a variety of Quartz that has fused with Manganese and Iron during its formation. The strength of its distinctive colour is determined by how much Iron is present in its content. The geographical location of Amethyst can have a strong impact on the characteristics of its crystals, including the shade and strength of its colour. These can range from pale lavender, to a shade of purple close to black.
Amethyst is a very soothing stone, and is commonly used to relieve negative emotions such as stress and to dispel anger. It has been thought to aid in treatment of blood diseases, burns and infections.
Please keep out of direct sunlight as this will remove its colour.
