Wire Wrapped Indian Agate Pendant

Agate is a relatively common stone that may be found around the world. It comes in hundreds of different varieties and colours. Agates are believed to have been formed millions of years ago during volcanic eruptions – the volcanic lava flows left cavities filled with gas, and as the flows cooled, these cavities allowed for mineral bearing solutions to enter. The combinations of these solutions along with heat, pressure and millions of years allowed agates of all varieties to form.  An agate will resemble a potato on the outside; the stone must be cut or sliced to see the beautiful colours and formations within.  

Indian agate, also known as Fancy Jasper, comes in an astounding range of colours. The most common colours are red, pink, and green, however indian agate can also be found in shades of purple, orange, white, and blue. These intricate and unique colours make each piece of this lovely stone entirely unlike any other, and are prized by collectors for this very reason.
