The combination of rich colour, texture and a sprinkling of crystals makes this grey agate slice a wonderful piece.
Agate is usually formed in the intense heat of volcanic rock. The different bands are created by variation of cooling and minteral content when the molten rock is gradually solidifying. Finally, quartz crystals grow to create the glittering central cavity. The agate bands can be coloured in varying amounts to produce the beautiful result you see here.
This agate slice would be perfect for those looking for an attractive ornament for their home or workplace. It is also great for displaying the natural structure of agate, brilliant for children and crystal enthusiasts of all ages.
