The history to Amethyst

• Amethyst is the traditional gemstone gift for a 6th wedding anniversary and contemporary gift for the 33rd anniversary.
• The etiquette of anniversary gemstones dates back to Victorian England, where certain materials became associated with certain years, and amethyst's colour (long linked to devotion and fidelity) is part of why it settled into that role. 
• Amethyst is also February's birthstone and the stone of the Aquarius zodiac sign.
• From a geology perspective it's a variety of quartz, coloured violet by trace iron altered through natural irradiation, and hard enough (7 on the Mohs scale) to hold up to daily wear.
