Origin and Properties of the Zambian Amethyst Eggs

Amethyst is a mineral from the quartz family and owes its characteristic violet to blue-violet color to trace amounts of iron as well as natural radiation exposure within the earth. The deposits of Zambia produce amethyst with an especially intense, clear color, valued by connoisseurs and collectors worldwide. The egg shape, with a height of approx. 4.5 cm, is created through careful handwork, in which experienced stone cutters shape the raw mineral into its oval, smooth form.
