Amethyst, a violet variety of Quartz, was considered to be one of the most cardinal gems of the old world. Its name is derived from the ancient Greek word amethystos meaning not drunken. Interestingly, the ancient Greeks actually believed amethyst gems could prevent intoxication which is why wine goblets were specially carved from it. Later medieval European soldiers wore amethyst amulets as protection in the battlefield, due to a prevalent belief that this gem calms the nerves. Inspired by such riveting tales from the past, our artists from Jaipur create amaranthine barware that induces in us a feeling of sitting for a drink in a boisterous tavern in medieval Greece.
Process & Craft:
- Amethyst being a semi-precious stone, is used by both traditional sculptors and jewellers.
- Traditionally carved by artists for Jaipur, this stone is considered to be very hard to work on.
- Moreover, amethyst has a high rate of cracking due to a Mohs hardness level of a low seven, which makes it even more complex for our artists to work on our collection.
- Yet each piece of amethyst in our collection has been painstakingly carved by hand.
- And in the end, craftsmen use the age-old hardstone carving technique of drilling to give each piece a smooth and fine finish.
