The ancient Romans called it nothing more than a “blessed stone”, bringing good luck and peace.

Jewelry with amethyst
Amethyst increases the vigilance and prudence of a person. Protects from hasty and rash actions.
Fans of amethyst note that the stone itself chooses its owner and does not accept everyone - it can suddenly crack, get lost, etc. And if he chooses, then after constant contact he gets used to it, absorbs the spirit of his master, becomes a sincere friend, and helps him in every way in life. After a while, the owner of the stone feels a spiritual connection with him and practically does not part with the stone.
As a frame, silver is most often used. Amethyst in silver promotes friendly contacts and successful business meetings. It is believed that sterile women's silver jewelry with amethysts helps to become mothers, and men - restore male power. Amethyst in gold gives the body an energy balance. Amethyst looks great in jewelry made of red gold combined with citrines and chrysolites.
The origin of the name of the stone is associated with another amazing property - to stand guard over the sobriety of its owner. From ancient Greek amethyst is translated - as "not drunk". According to legend, the stone absorbs alcoholic fumes, remaining absolutely "sober".
An ancient legend is associated with the name of the stone. The unusually beautiful mineral was named after the Greek nymph Ametis, with whom Dionysus, the god of wine and fun, was in love. The beautiful Amethis rejected the ever-drunk Dionysus. For this act, the goddess Artemis turned the nymph into a violet-purple stone, which was given the name "amethyst", which literally means "not drunk."
