Welcome to the Fascinating World of Anahi Ametrine
One of the most intriguing gemstones, Anahi ametrine continues to be a mystery for many. People
are often astonished to see shades of purple and yellow in a single transparent stone. Ametrine is a rare gemstone with a limited supply and is sourced from only one location in the world. It is not very old and has made its market appearance only a few decades ago.
What is the Meaning of the Word Ametrine?
It will be interesting to note that ametrine is the combination of the name of two gemstones amethyst and citrine. It is a variety of bicolor quartz that includes zones of amethyst and citrine connecting through a single crystal. The color of the zones that are visible within ametrine occurs because of varying states of iron within the crystal. This variation takes place because of the temperature gradient across the crystal at the time of its formation.
Ametrine is also known as trystine and bolivianite.
