Peace

Amethyst

Amethyst calms the mind and eases anxious energy. It is the stone people reach for when they need the noise to settle.

The story

The name comes from the Greek "amethystos", meaning not intoxicated. The ancient Greeks wore it as protection against excess, and it became a stone of royalty and clergy across Europe, set into rings worn as a mark of clear judgement.

Caring for your piece

Keep it away from perfume, hairspray and cleaning products, and put it on last when you are getting ready. Store each piece separately so harder stones cannot scratch softer ones.

Clean it with a soft dry cloth. Take jewellery off before swimming, showering or sleeping, and natural stones will hold their colour and their polish for years.
