The value of amethysts in ASOIAF seems to vary quite widely, with Daemon’s amethyst necklace in The Mystery Knight being apparently worth more than everything Dunk owns, but the fool/ household knight Dontos can still plausibly provide an amethyst hairnet as a gift for Sansa. Do you think amethyst is one of the five cardinal stones or is there some Planetos version of Brazil rendering them commonplace? How much do you think they’re worth?

It’s not plausible that Dontos could give an amethyst necklace. But given that he brings them up immediately after he’s talking about this friend who’s going to liberate Sansa, I don’t think Sansa thinks he personally paid for them.
