Agate

Agate is one of our oldest friends in the gemstone world - it has been used for jewelry, as an official seal and in spiritual rituals for thousands of years.

Agate Colors

Agates can be found in all sorts of colors including blue, red, lilac, pink and yellow as well as a variety of interesting patterns, stripes and bands.

Agate Species

Agate is a type of banded chalcedony which in turn is a kind of quartz.

There are many varieties found in agate, usually determined by the color or pattern such as:

  • Blue Lace Agate
  • Sardonyx
  • Moss Agate
  • Fire Agate

Agate Price

Agate is a very moderately priced gemstone that will usually just be a few dollars a carat for even the finest examples although some particularly iridescent Fire Agates can reach $50 per carat.

The brightest and most vivid colors combined with clear and interesting patterns are what really determines the price.

Carat Weight

Agates can be found in carat sizes that range from just a carat or two all the way to 20 or 30 carats or even bigger. These can be made into some very interesting and unique jewelry items such as pendants or brooches.

Once again, even these large size stone are very reasonably priced at less than a dollar per carat.

For more details please refer to our full Agate Info page here

Treatments

Most agates with the interesting colors and patterns are completely untreated other than the cutting and polishing but the smooth single color examples such as green or yellow agate are often dyed to create the desired even coloring.

This dyeing is a safe and approved treatment which does not wash away or fade.

Where are Agates found?

The most popular source of agates in modern times depends on the type - Fire Agate from Mexico, Moss Agate from Brazil, Dentritic Agate from Australia, green Agate from India and so on.

What jewelry is Agate suitable for?

Agate is rated at 7 on Mohs hardness scale which makes it tough enough for all jewelry items including daily wear pieces.

The regular green and yellow stones are perfect for simple jewelry designs, especially for home made items while the larger gemstones with interesting patterns are excellent for one-off pieces.

Birthstones and Anniversaries

Agate is a mystical birthstone for September. It would make a great gift for someone you know who has a birthday in this month.

Agate can be a gemstone gift for the 12th and 14th wedding anniversaries.

If you want a gem that you can trust to not be treated, or if it is it's disclosed this is the place! There's something for everybody. I really like knowing that the picture of the item is the one I'm buying, not a sample or stock photo. If you make jewelry, buy gems here! You can even buy a gem and have it set by a jeweler. Again, they have an amazing inventory, and prices are more than fair. You won't be disappointed! I just wish they sold uncut gems. Sometimes I just want a specimen in the crystal form. I'm surprised they had no quartz from Arkansas, but they have a great selection of anything I've ever looked for.

I ordered 4-2 ct oval ruby and sold the first one by lunch time and then 2 more by the end of the week. tripled my money and the clients were all quite happy. BTW I believe in full disclosure, i.e., the client knew they were fusion filled.

gem selection is pretty great, prices are unbelievably low, however the cut of some gems is questionable at best. you have to dig for the good ones, but it’s worth it for the price

I was just browsing on my trusted gem site, Gem Select, when I saw gems that were my grand children's birth stones. The price was right, so I ordered them. I like to surprise my grand children with something special for their birthday, and they will be nice birthday gifts.

Completely would recommend this company to any gem collector, jewelry store, or someone looking for a gemstone to repair their jewelry. There is an abundance of choices at great prices! If you don't see what you need exactly the customer service department will go above and beyond to meet your needs. Shipping is very reasonable! The gemstones always arrive well before the expected arrival date. This company has very high standards of meeting their customers needs! They are the number 1 company I go to when looking for any gemstone. They are also very detailed in their descriptions so there is no confusion at all as what you are purchasing! Highly recommended!!!!
