Description from the seller

Stunning and large dendritic agate in a teardrop shape. It is appreciated for its unique and visually captivating patterns, which make the piece one of a kind. The base color of the dendritic agate can vary widely, including shades of white, gray, green, blue, and even more vibrant hues. The contrast between the translucent background and the dark dendritic inclusions enhances the overall beauty of the stone.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, some believe that dendritic agate possesses metaphysical properties. It is often associated with grounding, stability, and connection with nature. Like other forms of agate, it is believed to have properties that promote balance and harmony.
The formation of dendritic agate is closely linked to the geological processes that create agate in general, involving the deposition of silica-rich solutions in cavities within rocks. The presence of manganese or iron oxide in these solutions contributes to the formation of dendritic patterns within the agate.
