PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Agate specimens from Zimbabwe
Agate from Zimbabwe is a stunning variety of chalcedony, characterized by its unique banding and vibrant colors. Formed from silica-rich volcanic rock, this gemstone displays a range of hues, including earthy browns, deep reds, and soft pastels, often in intricate, swirling patterns.
The banding in Zimbabwean agate is a result of the slow cooling of molten rock, allowing minerals to crystallize in layered formations. This gives each piece a distinct appearance, making it highly sought after for jewelry and decorative items.
