The name "amethyst" comes from the Greek and means "not intoxicating." This perhaps was due to a belief that amethyst would ward off the effects of alcohol; more than likely, the Greeks were referring to the almost wine-like color of some stones they may have encountered. Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz and is a hugely popular semi-precious gemstone. Its color is unparalleled, and even other, more expensive purple gemstones are often compared to amethyst's color and beauty. Amethyst's coloration is due to ferric iron impurities reacting with the quartz in unique ways. Although amethyst is always purple, it can and does have a wide range of purple and violet shades. Because amethyst is widely available, the cost remains reasonable compared to other semi-precious stones.
