What are amethyst geodes?
 
An amethyst geode is a hollow rock with amethyst crystals lining the inner walls, so first, the cavity must be formed. This can happen anywhere there is or was lava close to the earth’s surface. As a result, amethyst geodes can be found in thousands of places around the globe.

Determine A Geodes Value

1. The tone and saturation of the amethyst crystal are the most important factor in determining its price. The crystals displaying the deepest purple tones with strong colour saturation are considered superior geodes. The quality decreases as the amethyst crystals lose their saturation and become lighter purple or reddish-purple hues.
2. The second factor used in grading is the symmetry or the outside shape of the geode itself. The most symmetrical geodes command the best prices.
