I auction a rose banded agate slice pendant with a colorful agate necklace (St. Agatha Stone – Symbol of Strength). The entire necklace has been hand-threaded with knots at every bead.

We present a beautiful and striking pendant made from a natural banded agate slice. The piece stands out for its fascinating geometric pattern of concentric rings that recalls the growth rings of a tree trunk, alternating beautiful pink and white tones. The slice has been carefully mirror-polished on both faces, offering a completely smooth surface, soft to the touch, with spectacular vitreous shine. It is a timeless jewelry piece, ideal for everyday wear as well as gemstone collectors.

Saint Agatha of Catania
Martyr and Patron: Agatha (from the Greek agathé, meaning 'kind') was a young virgin and martyr of the 3rd century in Sicily, who suffered persecution for her Christian faith under Emperor Decius.

Symbolism of Strength: Her story is an example of unwavering faith and fortitude in the face of torture. She is the patron saint of Catania, and her intercession is invoked against volcanic eruptions (such as Mount Etna). She is also the patroness of nurses and of people suffering from breast cancer, due to the torments she endured.
