Ametrine is an extraordinary gem.
It is made of amethyst, which is slowly discolored by natural heat and other high temperature effects. It has the characteristics of amethyst and citrine.
Amethyst - the crystal of love
At the end of the fifth century, the Spanish officer Don Felipe came to South America and fell in love with the princess Anahà (pronounced Ana Yi) of the local tribe Ayoreo, while the mine rich in amethyst was given as a dowry to Don Felipe. Named after the princess Anahà for this mining area.
As time went by, Don Felipe was eager to go home, and he wanted to bring the princess back to Spain to live. This idea was resolutely opposed by the chieftains.
As the conflict deepened, the chieftain decided to assassinate Don Felipe. The princess learned of the news, regardless of family opposition, helped Don Felipe escape from South America. Before leaving, the princess hung her necklace as a talisman on the chest of Don Felipe.
Don Felipe escaped from South America for a lifetime, but the princess was shot by a bow. After the escape, Don Felipe noticed the amulet on the chest - a huge natural ametrine, this eternal testimony of the love of the princess and Don Felipe. Since then, Amethyst has been hailed as the "guardian stone of love."
Ametrine has many beautiful meanings: she is the only two-color crystal in natural crystal, so it is called "love harmony stone", which can enhance love. Moreover, she has the dual role of wisdom crystal (amethyst) and wealth crystal (yellow crystal), and has the wisdom to create wealth.
Amethyst component
Its main component is silicon dioxide (SiO2), which belongs to the trigonal system. Natural ametrine is roughly classified into two types: intrusive rock discoloration type and native type.
Natural ametrine is an extremely rare gemstone that has not been widely recognized worldwide for a long time.
The purple color of natural ametrine is distributed from light purple, lavender to deep purple (very few natural ametrine has blue-violet), and the yellow part is distributed from light yellow, golden yellow and brown (tea crystal). The color of the synthetic ametrine is too bright, the purple part is more blue-violet, blue-green, and the yellow part is more orange-red and red.
Identification of ametrine
Place the ametrine on a hair and slowly rotate. When turning to a certain direction, two parallel hair strands can be seen through the crystal. The more obvious the double shadow effect, the better the crystal texture. The phenomenon of birefringence of natural ametrine and synthetic auricular yellow crystals with excessive impurities is not obvious. Glass products have no birefringence.
Ametrine effect
Ametrine has the color of amethyst and citrine. Therefore, folks generally believe that amethyst can not only promote wealth, but also enhance wisdom, enhance interpersonal relationships, and promote health.
In terms of wearing alone, the natural double color of amethyst is also very special and very fashionable.
