    Amethyst is one of the most popular forms of quartz. It comes in
   a wide range of purple shades. A small amount of manganese and
   iron give the amethyst its color.

             

        The color purple is traditionally the color of royalty. Amethyst has
         been used since the dawn of history to adorn the rich and the powerful,
       monarchs and rulers. Amethyst is a semi-precious stone found
        throughout the world. Different localities can produce an amethyst
           unique to that particular region or even to that particular mine.
