Natural Amethyst Gemstones

Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, and comes in many shades of purple.  Gemstones with a flash of secondary red are termed Siberian-colored  amethyst, and these are the most desired variety.  Quartz is one of the most abundant minerals in the earth's crust, and the amethyst color is likewise plentiful.  This is why the price is relatively low despite the beautiful color and great clarity.  The hardness is 7 on the Mohs scale.
