Banded Amethyst Polished Stone
A large, finely polished banded amethyst stone with subtle colour and markings.
Banded amethyst is a striking variety of amethyst known for its distinctive patterns of amethyst and white quartz.
The contrast between the two minerals creates distinctive patterns, making each stone unique.
Formed over millions of years, the combination of amethyst and white quartz produces zigzag or chevron-like patterns.
This stone is also known as chevron amethyst, although this name is mostly used in North America.
Most material comes from Brazil, India and Africa.
This banded amethyst stone has a flat base, allowing it to sit securely on one side. Its fine polish makes it wonderfully tactile, while its smooth surface reflects light beautifully.
