Description
Most Agate is ugly in its natural state; specimens must be polished to bring out their full beauty. Much of the Agate sold to collectors has been treated, in the form of tumbled stones or polished slabs.

Agates appearance is waxy and soft usually banded, sometimes translucent with small crystals in various sizes. They come in many colours: Clear, Milky white, Grey, Blue, Green, Pink and Brown. Some Agates have also created an identity of their own, Blue Lace Agate, Moss Agate, Dendritic Agate, Fire Agate and Botswana Agate. This has occurred because these agates have specialised healing abilities.
