Product description
Strand of dyed semi-precious stone beads AGATE in a round shape.
Agate is a porous mineral that easily absorbs different pigments. The individual layers of the stone have varying absorbent capacities, which result from their unique composition and structure. Another characteristic of agate is its ability to change color when exposed to heat. This creates vast possibilities for creative expression, which is why today there exists an entire industry dedicated to the production of chemically colored stones. The art of dyeing agate was already known in Roman times. It is durable, irreversible, and widely accepted as a standard practice for enhancing the stone’s natural qualities.
