Ametrine Gemstone Beads Collection

What Is Ametrine?

Ametrine is a rare bi-color quartz gemstone prized for its natural combination of purple amethyst and golden citrine within a single crystal. Ametrine ranges from violet purple and lavender to champagne gold, honey yellow, smoky peach, and dramatic sunset-inspired color transitions.

The gemstone forms when different temperature and oxidation conditions occur naturally within quartz crystals during formation, creating striking zones of purple and golden coloration.

Because ametyst and citrine occur together naturally inside the same crystal structure, ametrine displays extraordinary dual-color beauty unlike almost any other gemstone.

Ametrine has long been admired in luxury jewelry, collector mineral specimens, carvings, and artisan gemstone designs because of its brilliant transparency and unique natural color separation.

With a Mohs hardness of approximately 7, ametrine is considered a durable gemstone suitable for jewelry making and artisan beading projects.

At Tiny Gem Supply, we specialize in carefully curated ametrine gemstone beads ranging from delicate micro gemstone beads to luxurious collector gemstone strands for refined jewelry making and artisan beading designs.
