Ametrine

A rare bicolored variety of quartz, ametrine is the natural combination of amethyst and citrine within a single crystal. This fine gemstone is distinguished by its perfectly contrasted purple and golden tones, highly sought after in jewelry and by collectors.
Ametrine is ideal for creating exceptional jewelry pieces, offering a gemstone that is both original, luminous, and natural. According to legend, the Spanish conquistador Don Luis Felipe was offered the ametrine mine as a gift during his union with Princess Anahí in Bolivia, contributing to the historical fame of this unique gemstone.
Main origin: Bolivia, Santa Cruz region.
⚠️ Be careful of the many synthetic or treated ametrines on the market. At The Fine Gems, only rigorously selected natural gemstones are offered.
