Chevron Amethyst Skull | Hand Carved Purple Crystal Skull with Rainbows | Third Eye Meditation Decor

A hand carved Chevron Amethyst skull with genuinely gorgeous definition, sharp purple and white V-banding throughout, plus a bonus of smoky quartz and hematoid inclusions adding extra depth and internal rainbows. We love finding pieces like this where the banding pattern happens to line up beautifully with the carved contours of the face. Measures approximately 3.15 inches front to back, 2.10 inches wide, and 2.41 inches tall.

The geology: Chevron Amethyst is Amethyst layered with milky or clear quartz in distinctive V-shaped chevron patterns, sometimes called Dream Amethyst or Banded Amethyst. The smoky and hematoid (iron-inclusion) elements seen in this particular skull are a bonus feature, not every piece of Chevron Amethyst has them, which makes this one a bit more visually complex than a standard example. Mohs hardness 7.

About crystal skulls: popular lore often traces crystal skull carving back to ancient civilizations, but most quartz and amethyst skulls sold today, including this one, are modern lapidary carvings. The skull form has long served as a memento mori symbol across cultures, an interesting pairing with a stone so tied to spiritual clarity and dream work.

In crystal traditions, Chevron Amethyst is most often associated with the third eye and crown chakras, described as supporting spiritual clarity, dream work, and meditation. Carved into skull form, it makes a genuinely striking collector piece for a crystal shelf or meditation altar.

Care note: like all Amethyst, prolonged direct sunlight can fade the purple over time, so display in indirect light.
