This one-of-a-kind Green Agate cabochon measures approximately 18mm by 14mm with a softly domed height of around 6mm, offering a beautifully balanced size that feels both bold and wearable. Rich translucent green tones flow through the stone in layered natural patterns, ranging from deep mossy forest shades to lighter soft jade-like areas that glow subtly as they catch the light. Delicate banding and organic variations within the stone give it a calming, earthy character, with each angle revealing new depth and movement beneath the polished surface.

The classic oval shape and generous dome make this agate especially versatile for jewellery design, whether set into a statement ring, elegant pendant, or artisan earrings. Its luminous green colouring pairs beautifully with sterling silver for a fresh contemporary feel, while yellow gold or brass settings bring out the warmth and richness within the stone.

Key Properties & Care

Agate is a banded variety of Chalcedony (Quartz), prized for its durability, natural beauty, and excellent wearability in jewellery.

Mohs Hardness: Green Agate has a hardness of approximately 6.5 to 7, making it a durable gemstone that resists most everyday scratching and wear.

Cleaning: This stone is easy to care for and can be cleaned using warm soapy water and a soft cloth or brush. Ultrasonic cleaners are generally safe for solid agates, though gentle hand cleaning is recommended. Avoid sudden temperature changes and steam cleaning.

Maintenance:
Durability: Agate is non-porous, chemically stable, and highly durable, making it an excellent choice for both statement and everyday jewellery pieces.
Surface Finish: Its microcrystalline structure allows for a glossy, long-lasting polish that beautifully enhances the stone’s natural translucency and banding.
Storage: Although relatively hard, Agate can still be scratched by harder gemstones such as Sapphire, Diamond, or Cubic Zirconia. Store separately in a soft pouch or lined jewellery box to preserve the polished surface.
