Unlike other gemstones like rubies and sapphires, amethyst can be found in large carat sizes quite easily, so the price does not rise dramatically as the carat size increases. For natural gemstones at a reasonable price, our Amethyst for sale is a good option. Of course some people prefer the more subtle or pastel colored versions and really with such an affordable gemstone there is not that much price variation between the dark and light stones. An even color throughout the stone is preferred and any gem which has flashes of red or blue will increase in value. ![]() Amethyst PriceĪmethysts were once as valuable and prized as rubies, emeralds and sapphires but huge discoveries in the 19th century by settlers in Brazil brought the prices down dramatically - suddenly this lovely gemstone was available to everyone.Ĭolor is the driving force behind the price of amethyst with the deep purple color being the most sought after.

If you want a purple or violet gemstone - and who doesn't? - Then amethyst is the one for you. ![]() Actinolite Cat's Eye 61 Agate 675 Agate Geode 20 Almandine Garnet 38 Amazonite 229 Amethyst 3,006 Amethyst Geode Slice 84 Ametrine 223 Ammolite 462 Andalusite 207 Andesine Labradorite 151 Apatite 580 Aquamarine 118 Aventurine 140 Azotic Topaz 14 Azurite 23 Black Opal 256 Bloodstone 175 Boulder Opal 225 Carnelian 99 Cat's Eye Apatite 40 Cat's Eye Aquamarine 18 Cat's Eye Gemstones 1,151 Cat's Eye Moonstone 82 Cat's Eye Opal 178 Cat's Eye Scapolite 102 Chalcedony 142 Charoite 131 Chocolate Opal 76 Chrome Diopside 18 Chrysoberyl 111 Chrysoberyl Cat's Eye 177 Chrysocolla 74 Chrysoprase 42 Citrine 4,202 Color Change Gemstones 859 Color-Change Diaspore 737 Color-Change Fluorite 60 Color-Change Garnet 62 Coral 299 Demantoid Garnet 251 Dendritic Agate 130 Diamond 745 Druzy Amethyst 5 Druzy Azurite 23 Druzy Citrine 54 Druzy Variscite 132 Emerald 881 Enstatite 5 Fire Agate 346 Fire Opal 185 Fluorite 220 Fossil Coral 333 Garnet 5,872 Golden Beryl 192 Grandidierite 193 Grossularite Garnet 51 Hawk's Eye 1 Hematite 382 Hemimorphite 48 Hemimorphite Druzy 48 Hessonite Garnet 2,105 Hiddenite 8 Howlite 148 Idocrase 29 Imperial Topaz 12 Iolite 191 Jade Gemstones 333 Jadeite 333 Jasper 1,376 Kornerupine 250 Kunzite 410 Kyanite 664 Labradorite 530 Lapis Lazuli 235 Larimar 171 Lepidolite 58 Malachite 209 Malaya Garnet 163 Mali Garnet 13 Maw-Sit-Sit 135 Moonstone 755 Morganite 861 Moss Agate 79 Mother Of Pearl 105 Mystic Quartz 254 Mystic Topaz 42 Nuummite 125 Obsidian 255 Onyx 316 Opal 1,117 Opal Doublet 6 Opal In Matrix 20 Peanut Wood 20 Pearl 22 Peridot 1,355 Pietersite 588 Prehnite 842 Psilomelane Dendrite 26 Pyrite 17 Pyrope Garnet 1,928 Quartz 1,337 Quartz Cat's Eye 85 Quartz With Hedenbergite 10 Quartz With Marcasite 192 Rainbow Moonstone 648 Rainbow Pyrite 189 Rhodochrosite 162 Rhodolite Garnet 498 Rhodonite 42 Rose Quartz 770 Rubellite Tourmaline 16 Ruby 1,158 Ruby In Fuchsite 97 Ruby-Zoisite 221 Rutile Quartz 564 Sapphire 4,622 Scapolite 102 Scolecite 35 Seraphinite 58 Serpentine 81 Sillimanite 77 Sillimanite Cat's Eye 408 Smithsonite 1 Smoky Quartz 1,067 Snowflake Obsidian 37 Sodalite 37 Spectrolite 151 Spessartite Garnet 389 Sphalerite 330 Sphene 515 Spinel 993 Star Diopside 11 Star Garnet 59 Star Gemstones 860 Star Moonstone 99 Star Rose Quartz 20 Star Ruby 180 Star Sapphire 484 Star Sunstone 7 Strawberry Quartz 910 Sunstone 493 Tanzanite 803 Tiger's Eye 860 Tiger's Eye Matrix 171 Topaz 4,530 Tourmaline 2,103 Tsavorite Garnet 254 Turquoise 98 Uvarovite Garnet Drusy 61 Variscite 11 Zircon 2,109
