Dendritic Agate Ring

SOLD to US Buyer (its impossible to find another similar looking dendrite patterns, other interesting patterns are available, thanks for viewing)


Dendritic Agate, fully natural, 10 carats, fern-like markings known as dendrites. These dendrites are iron or manganese inclusions, usually brown or black in color. Though they appear organic due to their fern-like structure, they are actually inorganic; they are formed at fine fracture surfaces through crystallization of weathered solutions of neighboring rock.
