Amethyst chips in 5-8mm sizes bring the natural, irregular character of genuine semi-precious gemstone to your work — no two pieces are exactly alike, which is exactly the point.

The purple tones in natural amethyst range from pale violet to deep, moody grape, and the raw chip cut lets the stone's translucency and natural variation show through rather than hiding it behind a uniform shape.

What to make with them

String them onto wire or thread for organic, layered necklaces and wrap bracelets where the uneven silhouette reads as intentional texture, or incorporate them into bead embroidery and fringe work where their flat-to-chunky profile fills space in a way round beads simply can't.

Description

Small gemstone are both popular and versatile. Their convenient size makes them easy to work with, and useful in a wide variety of designs. You can use them as a subtle color accent or base your entire design upon them. Their natural organic shape makes them a great partner for beads like precious metal rounds or metallic seed beads. In Greek Mythology, Amethyst was created thanks to the god of wine Dionysus (Bacchus) and the goddess Diana. However, in the view of more modern beliefs, amethyst is a highly prized purple colored quartz. The deeper the shade of purple the higher quality the stone. Very pale specimens of this stone can be heat treated to create green amethyst. Amethyst is reputed to have healing, and intuitive properties. Amethyst is The birthstone for February.
