Amethyst’s lustre is vitreous; it rates 7 on the Mohs scale which makes it suitable for jewellery that has secure settings to protect the stone from wear. Depending on the transparency of the stone which can be anything between transparent to opaque, amethysts are cut into faceted gems, cabochons, beads or shaped into carvings. Very commonly they are left intact as geodes, natural specimens of crystals still attached to their host-rock, that become beautiful decorative ornaments.

  • Stone Size: 20 x 15
  • Carat Weight (ct): 21.54

Use mild soapy water and a soft cloth to clean your jewellery

When buying gemstones we recognise the importance of being able to reassure our customers about the quality of those items. An increasing number of gemstones and diamonds have been artificially enhanced or synthesised in a laboratory. Whilst some processes are legitimate, any enhancement or treatment should be disclosed to the customer at the point of sale.

Holts Lapidary Guarantee

Holts Lapidary have been buying and selling gemstones for over 70 years.

We have a team of qualified gemmologists on-hand to examine and inspect every gemstone. Each team member is either qualified by the Gemmological Association of Great Britain or the Gemmological Institute of America. We have our own in-house, fully equipped gemmological laboratory that our gemmologiists use to undertake all tests required. We do also have associated laboratories to undertake further tests if required. Each piece is examined under magnification and where necessary has undergone more rigurous testing in our in-house laboratory.

This means that every gemstone supplied (loose or in an item of jewellery) has undergone a strict process of inspection and testing. We put our name and reputation on everything we supply, knowing that we have taken meticulous care with the process of testing. Our 70 years reputation is underpinned by you being able to trust Holts Lapidary level of care taken and the duty to their customers.
