The ametrine necklace is a unique bicolour jewel worn close to the neck. This natural blend of amethyst purple and citrine yellow in the same stone gives each pendant or bead a fascinating gradient that transitions smoothly and naturally from purple to yellow. It is the only natural gemstone that offers two stones in one, and this duality is visible to the naked eye. Ametrine comes primarily from a single deposit in the world, the Anahí mine in Bolivia, discovered in the 17th century by a Spanish conquistador who received it as a dowry from the indigenous princess Anahí. Legend has it that the princess offered this bicolour stone as a symbol of her heart divided between two worlds. Worn as a necklace, ametrine is close to the throat chakra and the heart chakra, a placement that allows it to work on the balance between the two.
In lithotherapy, the ametrine necklace is renowned for its properties of balance, inner harmony, and lucid creativity. It is a stone that combines the best of amethyst (calmness, spirituality, wisdom) and citrine (optimism, confidence, abundance) in a single energy. Worn around the neck, it accompanies the day with this dual vibration that balances intuition and action, reflection and decision, dreams and reality. It is recommended for people who struggle to reconcile their two facets, for creatives who want to combine inspiration and productivity, for indecisive people who waver between two options, and for those seeking a balance between inner and outer life. Ametrine pairs well with rock crystal (amplification), moonstone (intuition and softness), or smoky quartz (grounding and letting go). For care, a rinse with clear water and recharging in moonlight are sufficient. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade the purple. With a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, it is a solid and resistant stone for everyday wear.
