Agate is most commonly found in volcanic rocks or lava, filling the cracks in the rocks once the lava bursts from them. Lines appear slightly on the surface and tend to divide agate into several sections, forming magnificent patterns in its most natural form. The agate is translucent and will look spectacular in any light. It takes hours to cut open the agate with a diamond saw, revealing its beauty that has spent millions of years forming. What most people don’t realise, is that natural agate is brown in colour, and the real beauty of agate lies in the natural lines and colours within each piece. More than that, they are one – of – a – kind; Once they are gone, they are gone.

 

Agate are the gifts of pure natural beauty given by the Earth and make the most spectacular decorations of a home or office, and if they are taken care of, they will last a lifetime. Agate is truly a gift to last forever. Agate is said to provide protection, self – confidence, maturity, strength, braveness, security, and calmness.
