For natural gemstones at a reasonable price, our Amethyst for sale is a good option.

An even color throughout the stone is preferred and any gem which has flashes of red or blue will increase in value. Amethyst PriceĪmethysts were once as valuable and prized as rubies, emeralds and sapphires but huge discoveries in the 19th century by settlers in Brazil brought the prices down dramatically - suddenly this lovely gemstone was available to everyone.Ĭolor is the driving force behind the price of amethyst with the deep purple color being the most sought after. To create a purple dye in the past was a difficult and expensive process - for thousands of years only the Phoenicians knew the secret of turning sea snails in to this luxurious color.Ĭlothes and materials dyed purple were so costly that the color became associated with only the rich royals and clergy and this exclusivity expanded to amethyst gemstones which at the time were as rare as diamonds and rubies. Purple, and its related colors such as violet, lavender and lilac, is a rare and very powerful color in nature. If you want a purple or violet gemstone - and who doesn't? - Then amethyst is the one for you.
