Amethyst Goethite

Amethyst Goethite is a crystal (shop SKU AMGO99) on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Amethyst is the purple variety of quartz, colored by traces of iron. 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.

Namaste Bookshop is on the south side of 14th Street, just west of Fifth Avenue, about a short walk from Union Square.
