Its beautiful violet or cherry-blue color is due to the fact that this mineral contains silica or silicon oxide, and the color of amethyst is associated with iron impurities.

For a long time there is a beautiful legend about this stone. If you believe the legend, then

... once the god of winemaking, Dionysus passionately fell in love with a forest nymph named Ametis, but she refused in courtship to the Greek god, because she loved the shepherd of Sirikos. Enraged and offended, Dionysus chased after her, but she begged the goddess Atremide for help. At the moment when Dionysus approached the weakened nymph, she turned into a statue. In an attempt to revive Amethis, Dionysus poured the statue with wine, but it only turned purple. So on earth there was a stone amethyst.
