Ametrine
Ametrine is a beautiful natural gemstone that shows two colors in one stone: purple/violet of Amethyst and yellow/golden of Citrine.

About ​

Ametrine

Ametrine is one of the most interesting gemstones in the quartz family because it naturally combines the colors of Amethyst and Citrine in a single crystal. The purple part comes from iron impurities and natural irradiation, while the yellow or orange part forms due to differences in temperature during crystal growth. This natural color zoning creates a striking gemstone that looks both elegant and unusual. Ametrine is mainly found in Bolivia, which is considered the most famous and important source of this gemstone. In fact, much of the world’s fine-quality Ametrine comes from the Anahi Mine in Bolivia. Smaller deposits may also be found in places like Brazil and India, but Bolivia remains the primary producer. Since Ametrine is a variety of quartz, it has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for many kinds of jewelry such as rings, pendants, earrings, and bracelets
