Its color can vary from very light purple to purple. Its name derives from the Greek word “améthustos”, which means “not drunk”, because it was believed that this stone preserved from drunkenness, with reference to the myth of the nymph Amethyst, transformed into stone by the goddess Diana so that she could escape the drunken god Bacchus. The same god Bacchus then gave the stone its purple color and the ability to protect from drunkenness. Its color is due to gamma irradiation and the presence of traces of iron within the crystal lattice. Irradiation causes the iron atoms [Fe (+3)] that replace the silicon [Si] in the lattice to lose an electron and form a colored center [FeO4]. When heated above 300-400 °C, amethyst loses its purple color and often turns yellow, orange or brown, so it resembles the citrine variety of quartz.\u003ch6\u003e Dimensions\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHeight (cm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDepth (cm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWidth (cm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 4\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWeight (g): 6\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e Property\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eChemical Formula:\u003c\/strong\u003e SiO2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMohs scale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRelative Density:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.65\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCrystal System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trigonal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e Metaphysical Corner\u003c\/h6\u003e In the metaphysical world, amethyst is considered a stone to be worn during meditation as it is said to cleanse the aura and stabilize the energy located within the body.\n\n Amethyst is also said to improve stability and strength.\u003ch6\u003e Notes\u003c\/h6\u003e The necklace is included in the price and is approximately 45 cm long.\n The pendant supports are made of brass alloy patinated in silver or gold color.\n The chains are made of steel, in gold-colored or copper-colored patinated steel depending on the pendant, as shown in the photo.\n The pendant is shipped in an elegant colored organza bag with drawstring.\n\n If you would like to receive the pendant in a gift box, simply request it in the notes section of the checkout before proceeding with the purchase.\n\n\n\n","brand":"Minerals Club","offers":[{"title":"Brazil","offer_id":44018565775597,"sku":"CIO604A","price":7.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/8858\/4904\/files\/CIO604A_2.jpg?v=1771499321","url":"https:\/\/mineralsclub.eu\/en\/products\/ciondolo-tibetano-di-ametista-in-lega-di-argento-anticocio604a","provider":"MineralsClub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
