It's Easy Being Green!!
Green Amethyst, also known as Prasiolite is from the same quartz family as the traditional purple stone, but it's sage green hue gives it a special glow. It is considered a collector's gemstone and is reputed to have healing properties that include strengthening the mind, emotions, and will in order to enhance prosperity. Green amethyst is a durable gemstone that holds up well to everyday wear.
Green Amethyst is one of the most interesting stones we carry. I'll be honest with you. It took me a while to warm up to them, but once I wrapped my head around the idea, I really like them. I mean really -- Amethyst is PURPLE, yes? Well it turns out that are small pockets of light sage green quartz, also known as Prasiolite. There's simply not enough around to be marketable, but someone started monkeying around with regular Amethyst, and managed to turn it into this cool green color.
What's so cool about it is it's neutrality. It won't argue or fight with much of anything you wear. It's a complimentary color, which means it goes with anything, not trying to take center stage. It's just a nice addition to your collection, one that you can wear any time you want with any thing you want. And that's pretty hard to beat. Oh yeah -- they're pretty, too.
This ring just looks great! It's a lightweight Fleur D'lis Filigree, low domed, won't hang up in your jeans pockets. A good all around ring with tarnish resistant Argentium Sterling Silver.
