Moss Agate Tumble Stone- 3cm

Moss Agate

Moss Agate is admired for its natural, plant-like inclusions that resemble moss, ferns, or branches suspended within the stone. These organic patterns create a soft, earthy appearance, often set against a clear, milky, or pale background.

Because of its distinctive internal designs and durability, Moss Agate is commonly used for polished stones, cabochons, beads, and decorative objects. Each piece appears like a miniature landscape formed naturally over time.

✨ Fact & Fun Fact:
Moss Agate is a variety of chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz, SiO₂). The moss-like patterns are not plant material but mineral inclusions, typically iron or manganese oxides. Despite its name, Moss Agate often lacks the banding typical of agate and is sometimes classified simply as a form of chalcedony. It has been used historically in seals and decorative art since ancient times.
