Originally used as an ornamental stone, the amethyst gem was previously exploited for decorative purposes by the Etruscans and the Egyptians. It was also used in the 18th century to make clasps and brooches. Nowadays, amethysts are still considered precious stones, which in the past led to their prominence on many precious items (British crown, Egyptian crown, Russian crown, etc.). Due to their color and the beauty of their luster, these gems are still among the most sought-after stones. With a purple hue, amethyst gems represent the stone of Bacchus. Like the Greeks, the Romans used to drink their wine in amethyst cups adorned with Bacchus, the god of wine, to protect themselves from drunkenness. They also made bracelets and necklaces to carry the divinity of Bacchus and the nymph Amethyst.
