Amazonite
Amazonite can be found in shades of purple, grey, green, and blue. However, most often, it is a greenish-blue colour.
Amazonite is known as 'Amazonian rock' because of its similarity to nephrite, which, according to the Indians of the Rio Negro, came from the 'Land of Women'. This is why it was attributed to the property of making women beautiful. In addition, some populations have given mythical significance to this stone; in Mesopotamia, amazonite was linked to the ocean goddess Tiamat, the embodiment of chaos. In India, it is the beautiful Estsanatlehi, the goddess of the earth. Amazonite is often used for jewellery and art objects (e.g. Tutankhamun's tomb).
Today, amazonite remains a very popular gemstone for its lithotherapeutic properties and hypnotic colour, which goes well with all types of jewellery.
