Blue Agate
Polished blue agate round beads in saturated cobalt blue with translucent cloudy depth, a clean centered drill line and glossy highlights for a calm modern strand.
Blue Agate is an igneous mineral, Mohs hardness 7.
Where it’s found: Agate forms in volcanic rock all over the world. Major sources include Brazil, Uruguay, India and Mexico.
Good to know: Strong blue is rare in natural agate, so most vivid blue agate on the market is dyed. This is a long-standing, widely accepted practice.
Across traditions, blue agate is worn as a reminder of calm, communication, clarity and balance. We share these correspondences as cultural tradition, not medical claim.
Often gifted to those born under gemini and pisces and aquarius.
