Amethyst belongs to the quartz family. The Quartz family is very large, with an enormous variety of gemstone material in every color of the spectrum. Amethyst is purple in color due to iron in its atomic structure. The name comes from latin and means "without intoxication" because ancients Greeks thought that the stone would help prevent the negative effects of consuming alcohol.

This point is from Vera Cruz, Mexico. Vera cruz crystals are known for being extremely small, pale purple with well formed crystals. This piece is a small amethyst cluster. Very interesting shape and a beautiful representation of Vera Cruz amethyst!
