Perhaps like myself you have seen Ametrine items listed for sale, but wondered what it is. Well it’s like Amethyst. Like we just learnt Amethyst is a type of quartz, later we will learn that Citrine is as well. Ametrine is the name given to a stone that is a mixture of purple & yellow quartz; or as is sometimes said a mixture of Amethyst and Citrine. It is an interesting stone to own particularly in a ring. I prefer it set with yellow gold. Obviously Ametrine has the same hardness & other properties as Amethyst.
