Amethyst Heart from Brazil

An amethyst heart from Brazil in a compact jewelry size. The polished quartz shows an even purple color depth and is suitable as a pendant for a jewelry display case.

Brazilian amethyst deposits in Rio Grande do Sul provide the material from the Serra Geral Basalt Formation. The selection prioritizes pieces with consistent coloring throughout the entire cut volume.

The compact heart shape follows the classic Brazilian cutting tradition. It combines contemplative geometry with the everyday wearability of a pendant.

The purple color is created by traces of iron in the quartz lattice and natural gamma radiation in the host rock. It remains stable for decades when exposed to direct sunlight.
