This is a beautiful, quality Moroccan Agate specimen, polished on one side, that presents with banding and a sparkling crystalline vug or pocket.  3.28" x 2.08" x 1.11" or 83.5mm x 52.9mm x 28.2mm.  A couple of standout features of this agate include detailed, layered banding and burst designs all the way to the corner of the piece. Another fascinating attribute of this excellent example of this agate from Morocco is the translucency and transparency, i.e. the clearer to murky areas of the specimen that give the appearance that many of the fascinating structures and patterns are floating and immersed within this quartz var. chalcedony agate. Along with the sparkly pocket of crystals that present pinkish in color due to the presence of Hematite, the colors of the designs and structures vary from yellow to cream to pink and orange. The polished surface of the agate is terrific!^   91 grams.

^The presence of natural stress fractures is considered the norm for this type of agate from Morocco; the fractures are often very fine lines that don't take anything away from the overall aesthetic beauty of the agate.  While we highly appreciate the polished faces of these agates, we believe that seeing the raw and rough sides of agates from Morocco are an additional attraction and great reason for acquiring them.

Agate is primarily a microcrystalline quartz var. chalcedony most frequently found within volcanic and metamorphic rocks.  Moroccan Agates often feature many different formations, patterns, structures and an incredibly vast number of colors.   

Metaphysical considerations:  Moroccan agate is considered a wonderful, spiritually awakening tool for elevating consciousness and revealing new opportunities and good change.  Looking for motivation and harmonizing balance?  Moroccan Agate is a great choice.
