History & Facts
Agate is a gemstone that is closely related to Onyx and Chalcedony. Chalcedony is one of the substances that Agate is made of together with quartz and other minerals. It is a compact stone but despite that it is not that hard and is formed of lamellae/disks which creates layers and stripes in the stone. These stripes are typical of Agate and often what helps to identify the stone. Thanks to the softness of the crystal, it can be easily shaped which means that it is often found on the market in jewelry form.
Agate can vary greatly in its appearance and always has unique patterns and is never the same. It can also naturally vary in colors depending on the minerals found in the stone, its origin and quality, but is also a stone that is colored in some cases to get a more attractive appearance. These colored stones often have an obvious and unnatural color such as Ceris pink, bright blue or bright green.
The first documentation of the crystal was made around 315 BC by the Greek naturalist Theophrastus who found the stone. He named the crystal after the river Achates which is now called Dirillo and is located in Sicily, which was also where he made the find. Agate can now be found in several countries such as Brazil, India, Egypt, Uruguay, Scotland and Finland.
Agate is one of the most common stones on the market and is considered relatively inexpensive since the supply is so large, which is why this crystal is often found in a stone collector's collection.
