Amethyst Druzy Crystal Geode

This is a deep purple piece of an Amethyst geode from Brazil. Geodes are formed under extreme heat and pressure in the earth.  When a bubble forms, Amethyst crystals form on the walls of the bubble as it cools. Amethyst is a type of purple quartz with an interesting history. The use of Amethyst can be traced as far back as 25,000 B.C. to the Neolithic people in Europe. Its spiritual and legendary energies made it popular in many ancient cultures.  Amethyst is the birthstone for February.
