Trapiche Amethyst is an extraordinary and highly collectible variation of amethyst, distinguished by its striking hexagonal star pattern. This unique formation—known as “trapiche”—is created by natural mineral zoning, sometimes involving up to 24 different elements from the periodic table. In rare cases, the pattern forms a near-perfect six-pointed star, fully visible in these sliced specimens.
These Trapiche Amethyst Slices come from a private mine in Brazil’s Amazon region, operated by a single family and supplied by only one source worldwide. This level of rarity makes Trapiche Amethyst especially prized by collectors, healers, and those seeking stones that are both energetically refined and intentionally sourced.
Energetically, Trapiche Amethyst supports the mind and nervous system. Unlike traditional amethyst, which is often associated with deep relaxation, Trapiche Amethyst brings structure to mental energy—helping enhance concentration, regulate overwhelm, and energize the brain without overstimulation. Its hexagonal geometry encourages balance, coherence, and clear thinking, making it especially supportive during mentally demanding periods.
The sliced form allows the star and geometry to be fully seen, making this piece both a powerful energetic tool and a visually striking reminder of order, intelligence, and calm clarity.
