Amethyst is a stone that exists in purple, green, and bicolor shades. It has been a phenomenon in the world of jewelry from the ancient period. Typically, the deeper the color of the amethyst stone, the higher its price. The stone gives a beautiful traditional look when combined with other types of beads and tones in jewelry.

So although amethyst is known for its brilliant purple, you can find it in green too. However, with the latter, the only shade that exists is a light translucent green. 

On the other hand, with purple amethyst stones, the amount of blue or red, and the value of the color can vary from one stone to another. Picture a soft lilac or lavender with bluish tint, for example.
