This is an exceptional, intricately patterned, quality Moroccan Agate specimen with a polished face that presents with banding, fortification, orbs, and small crystalline vugs or pockets of sparkling chalcedony druzy.  3.55" x 2.71" x 1.65" or 90.3mm x 69mm x 42.1mm.   Some of the excellent features of this agate include highly detailed, layered banding, and concentric rings around the orbs scattered throughout the specimen. Occurrences of hematite are also evident near the edges of the agate showing a metallic gleam when the specimen is turned in the light. The white quartz var. chalcedony areas in this Moroccan Agate that present like cotton balls and flowers, have a plume-like characteristic. Another fascinating attribute of this excellent example of a Moroccan Agate is the translucency and transparency, i.e. the clear areas of the specimen that give the appearance that many of the beautiful structures, including botryoidal structures, are floating and immersed within the agate. The wide ranging palette of colors this specimen presents include pink, yellow, orange, cream, brown and red hues.  Normal for this type of agate, there is an almost indistinguishable, unless magnified, natural hairline stress fracture near the edge of the specimen that does not take anything away from powerful aesthetic of the agate.. The polish on this specimen is terrific.   269 grams.

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:  Moroccan agate is 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.
