Description from the seller
Dendrite Agate Vintage Necklace from Canada in Italian fashion design
The necklace recalls ancient Roman necklaces, like those found in Pompeii and Rome.
This extraordinary necklace is a masterpiece of nature. Each of the noble cabochons presents fascinating, tree- and fern-like inclusions of manganese oxides, which appear like delicate landscape drawings on a milky-white background.
What is Merlinite?
In the international jewelry and mineral trade, high-quality dendritic agate is often offered under the trade name Merlinite. It was chosen because the interplay of pure white and mystical black symbolizes the perfect balance of light and shadow of the magical trees of the druids. In gemology, Merlinite is regarded as a stone of magic, intuition, and inner wisdom.
