Here it is a beautiful amethyst which is engraved. Besides, did you know that the name of this fine stone comes from Greek mythology?
Indeed, Amethystos was a nymph that Dionysus, god of wine and celebration, would have tried to seduce on multiple occasions despite his refusals. The goddess Artemis would then have transformed the nymph into rock crystal, cold and impenetrable, in order to protect her. In love with anger and love, Dionysus spilled his glass of wine on the crystal which naturally took on its color: a violet hue, deeply intense and mysterious.
