Amethyst is a beautiful purple stone, known as a “Gem of Fire” by ancient cultures. It has been greatly sought after and prized throughout history. It is found in many locations around the world. The purple color, in various shades and hues, is caused by the presence of Manganese and Iron in the stone. The name comes from the Greek word for "not intoxicated". At one time, Amethyst was believed to prevent someone from getting drunk.

FAQ
What is the best way to hang a Cinjo wind chime?
The wind chimes are a simple design - one long wire covered in beads with glass pieces at each end. The middle of the wire is draped over a nail or hook or from a small tree branch. The glass pieces clink together to create a subtle sound while the beads reflect the sunlight. You want the pieces of glass to be close enough to generate the sound.
Do the glass wind chimes break?
Glass items are fragile and can break. Please handle with care. Try to avoid hanging wind chimes very close to stationary objects that could be hit by the glass and cause breakage. A protected area is best. However, fused glass is very strong and can hold up to most situations without breaking or chipping if hung with room to move in wind.
Do you use recycled packaging?
