Agate takes color beautifully, and this polished point pairs dyed color with a strip of sparkling druzy along its edge.
The druzy edge is the highlight: a band of tiny crystals that catches the light when you turn the point, set against the smooth polished faces. At about 6.5 inches tall and 4 inches wide, it is a broad, sturdy point that stands out on a bookshelf, an altar or a desk. To be clear about color, this agate is dyed; agate is porous, so dye moves into its bands and follows the natural pattern of the stone. The stone underneath is hard, durable quartz that keeps its polish. It makes a cheerful gift for someone who loves purple and blue gray tones or a collector of druzy pieces. This is the exact point shown.
The point is about 6.5 by 4 by 2 inches. Look at the ruler photo for scale.
Agate is a banded, translucent form of microcrystalline quartz. Because it is porous, most vividly colored agate in the trade is dyed, and the dye soaks into the bands at different rates, which is why the color follows the stone's natural pattern. The stone underneath is the same hard, durable quartz.
Stone Meaning: Agate is traditionally associated with balance and stability.
