Jewellery - Agate

A form of chalcedony, Agate comes in a wide range of colours and patterns, though it is most often characterised by distinct bands of colour. Some ancient civilisations believed that the stone could protect them from danger, the Romans believed it would ensure an abundant harvest, while yet others claimed that any person who looked on an Agate would feel a strong obligation to tell the truth.

Agates are considered to be excellent for stabilising the emotions, sharpening the mind and awaking hidden talents. Crystal healers suggest that Agates are particularly useful in helping to combat stress and to promote strength of character. They are also said to aid the wearer in letting go of bitterness and past resentments, encouraging forgiveness.

Borealis Jewellery Design makes use of Blue Lace Agate, Fossilised Agate and Moss Agate.
