31.52 ct Red Agate - Oval

At 31.52 carats, this agate from Indonesia carries its red color through an oval cut, measuring 28 x 19 mm.

Agate is banded chalcedony, quartz laid down in patient layers over ages, so every stone is the cross-section of a different slow story. Indonesia's volcanic deposits are a leading modern source of patterned agate and chalcedony. It is wholly untreated, its color finished by geology rather than by any furnace or enhancement.

A genuine agate at a size and price you can actually wear, the real thing rather than a machine-grown copy. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
