A Cathedral Amethyst from Brazil graded as Q3 refers to a large, geode-like formation with multiple amethyst crystals growing together in a spire or cathedral shape. While the Q3 grade indicates a more moderate level of quality compared to higher grades like Q1 or Q2, the amethyst in this grade still displays the stone’s characteristic purple hues, though it may have lighter coloring, less transparency, or minor inclusions. Cathedral amethysts from Brazil are prized for their striking natural formations and are often used as decorative pieces, combining aesthetic appeal with spiritual significance.

We are committed to ethical sourcing, ensuring that every item in our collection is responsibly mined in Uruguay & Brazil, with respect for both the environment and local communities. This guarantees not only the quality of the stone but also peace of mind for conscientious consumers.

Product Overview:

The Cathedral Amethyst, sourced from the renowned amethyst mines of Brazil, is a captivating natural formation known for its impressive and spire-like structure. In the Q3 grade, this amethyst maintains much of its visual appeal while being more moderately priced than higher-grade specimens like Q1 or Q2. The Q3 quality typically signifies a lighter shade of purple, with some variations in color intensity and clarity. You may also find small inclusions or natural imperfections within the crystal, which add to its organic beauty and uniqueness.

Despite the slightly lower grade, these Q3 Cathedral Amethysts retain the distinctive features that make them desirable, including their vertical, cathedral-like columns formed by clusters of amethyst crystals. Their raw, unpolished exterior contrasts beautifully with the sparkling purple crystals inside, creating an eye-catching display for both interior décor and spiritual practices. The Brazilian origin adds an extra layer of prestige, as the country is known for producing some of the finest amethyst in the world. Whether used as a decorative centerpiece or for its metaphysical properties, a Q3 Brazilian Cathedral Amethyst offers an affordable yet striking option for crystal collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Quality Grading information

To assist you in choosing the ideal Brazilian Cathedral Amethysts for your market needs, we provide a detailed grading system. Each piece is carefully evaluated and classified into one of the following quality grades:

Q3: Superior Grade

• Color: In the Q3 grade, the amethyst tends to have a lighter, less vibrant purple hue compared to higher grades like Q1 and Q2. The color may vary across the stone, with some areas being more pale or uneven. While not as intense as premium amethysts, it still retains the signature purple shades that make amethyst desirable.
• Clarity: Q3 amethysts often contain visible inclusions, such as small fractures or cloudy areas, which slightly detract from their transparency. These inclusions are natural and part of the formation process, adding to the unique, raw appeal of the stone, but they do result in less clarity compared to higher-grade specimens.
• Polish: The outer surface of Q3 amethyst cathedrals may have a less refined polish, with more of a natural, rugged exterior. While the inner crystal points can still exhibit a decent sparkle and shine, the overall polish may be less smooth or glossy, emphasizing the stone’s organic, untouched quality.
