Mexican Fire Agate Pendant in Sterling Silver
Stones First, Metal Second
Colors dance across rainbow landscape held within the fire agate. These phenomenal agates, dazzling like a precious opal but tough for every day wear, were born in volcanic landscapes, formed in the neck of hot springs and geysers, which left microscopically thin layers of limonite and/or goethite, iron minerals, sandwiched in between layers of chalcedony.
Currently fire agates have only been found in the Sonoran desert of the SW US and Mexico and only a small percentage yield color when cur by a master cutter. .
When viewing a fire agate, what is most noticeable is how the color moves within the stone, that's why most people imagine that instead, you are viewing a dragons scale or a boiling cauldron.
