Product description
Strand of dyed, cracked semi-precious stone beads AGATE in a round shape.
Agate is a porous mineral that easily absorbs various pigments. The individual layers of the stone have different absorption capacities, due to variations in their composition and structure. Another property of agate is its ability to change color when heated. This creates a vast field for creative expression, which is why today there is an entire industry dedicated to producing chemically colored stones. The art of dyeing agate was already known in Roman times. It is durable, irreversible, and accepted as a standard practice for enhancing the stone’s characteristics.
