Amethyst is a beautiful violet variety of quartz often used in jewellery. Its name comes from the ancient Greek word ἀ- ("not") & μέθυστος methustos ("intoxicated"), a reference to the belief that the stone protected its owner from drunkenness. The ancient Greeks wore Amethyst & made drinking vessels decorated with it, in the belief that it would prevent intoxication. Amethyst is one of several forms of quartz & is traditionally designated as February's birthstone.
