This gemstone beauty counted cross stitch pattern entitled Amethyst designed by Tracey Marvel Kramer showcases amethysts and how they look on our model. The amethyst is the birthstone for the month of February and is known for its brilliant violet coloring. Because of its beautiful royal purple coloring, it is symbolic of royalty and symbolizes Christ. This gemstone has been worn by bishops in the Christian church set in rings and in crowns. The amethyst is related to the quartz family but is mainly used in jewelry. It can be found in Africa, North and South America, Brazil and Asia. A long time ago, the amethyst stone’s value equaled that of the diamond, but now that amethysts have become more plentiful, its value has decreased in comparison to the diamond, but it’s still a stunning gemstone to say the least. The symbolic traits associated with amethysts are royalty, peace, serenity and wisdom.
