Amethyst Chevron Crystal

Among the books, decks, and stones on 14th Street is this crystal: Amethyst Chevron Crystal (shop SKU WJCDAS).

Chevron, or dream, amethyst shows V-shaped or banded patterns of purple amethyst and white quartz. In crystal traditions, amethyst is associated with calm and intuition. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.
