Discover beautiful colouration and fascinating crystal structure with this One-Off Natural Agate Slice. The hollow centre features beautiful quartz crystals.
Agate is usually formed in the intense heat of volcanic rock. The different bands are created by variation of cooling and mineral 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.
The subtle and pleasing colour tones of natural agate appeal particularly to the more mature individual. An excellent gift for the man in your life or for those with a passion for natural history.
