Sales are final, so please be sure you want that specific piece and are ok with the natural surface of the raw materials before purchasing.

Druzy Agate

Agate is stabilizing and all about support. Actually cryptocrystalline Quartz, Agate has very mellow and grounding vibes. It can bring a sense of peace when you otherwise feel scattered or overwhelmed. It symbolizes inner strength, inner light/radiance, intuition and balance. Druzy agate is said to enhance creativity and spiritual growth, supporting a strengthening of the spirit.

Agate is actually the banded variety of chalcedony, cryptocrystalline quartz. Natural agate forms in a variety of colors, ranging from white, grey, brown to red, blue, green, and sometimes pink. Any coloring is from inclusions of various minerals (like iron and manganese oxide).

Druzy refers to the tiny crystals that are found in the center of the banding (the opening in the geode).

I commissioned these from my supplier in Brazil, a lapidary who hand carves each piece. They are a company located in Southern Brazil, who sources locally (and even mines some of their material). They adhere tightly to safety, labor and environmental legislation from the rough material to the final product; and annually take part in the Conflict Mineral Survey (from the Responsible Minerals Initiative), which addresses responsible mineral sourcing practices. They support a number of small businesses and families in their business and short supply chain.
