Amethyst is the purple and most highly prized variety of the quartz family. The color used in jewelry ranges from the pale lilac "rose de France" to a dark, intense royal purple, sometimes with a reddish highlight. The latter is characteristic of top "Siberian" quality, first found in Russia, and subsequently in Brazil and Zambia.
email: jhurd@valleyjewelers.com We have an eBay store (mainly items other than jewelry, but sometimes estate jewelry pieces), that Jim maintains as a hobby, where you can find lower priced items (lingerie, kitchen items, books of all kinds, vintage cameras & lenses, collectibles, etc.) that we find at estate sales and auctions. Most of these items are new, or used in near new condition (all lingerie is new), unless the item is rare--If you'd like to check it out, PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR OUR EBAY STORE
