Phantom Amethyst Amulet & Brass Pendant Necklace

Phantom amethyst is a rare and gorgeous stone and these are even more special due to its trapiche, or wheel, design. These layers of stone, called phantoms, are formed when the growth of a quartz crystal is interrupted by external factors, such as changes in pressure, temperature, or mineral availability. The interrupted growth creates a new quartz layer, and then growth resumes, encasing the previous layer within the crystal. It's literally capturing moments in time of Earth's growth! The Phantom Amethyst Amulet necklaces are one of a kind, each one being unique in shape, size and natural variations. Necklaces are available in 16", 20" and 26" lengths. Amethyst is February's birthstone and used as a third eye and crown chakra stone. Amethyst has been used for protection and grounding, even as a sleep aid!
