Description from the seller
I am offering at auction a spectacular long Brazilian agate necklace; Santa Agatha Stone (Symbol of Strength). The entire necklace has been hand-tied with knots between each bead.
This exclusive necklace, being very long, can be worn in many different ways, all very flattering depending on the occasion.
The connection of agate to Christianity is twofold: on one hand, it is mentioned as a precious stone in the Bible, and on the other, it is associated with the figure of Saint Agatha (Symbol of Strength).

Gem origin: Brazil
Color: various colors and black beads
Bead size: approximately 19 mm
size of the black agate beads: approximately 3 mm

Saint Agatha of Catania
Martyr and Patron Saint: Agatha (from 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.
Fortitude Symbolism: Her story is an example of unwavering faith and resolve 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 tortures she endured.
