Item Description
Rancho Coyamito and Laguna agates are generally considered to be the finest Mexican agates and arguably the finest in the world. They are very highly desirable. The pattern and form of the beautiful color-banding on this dramatic, sliced and polished quartz variety chalcedony (trade name Rancho Coyamito Agate) nodule is striking. The vibrant shades of lavender and violet are indeed striking! The nodule is thick enough to cut one more 4 mm wide slab of about the same size. Old and classic material from the Stoudt collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
