All about the agate
Agate is a crystal that comes in an incredibly wide variety of shades, including blue, black, brown, pink, purple, red, and more. Agate stones often have a silky, swirling banding pattern on their surfaces that give them a liquid appearance. No two stones are alike, adding to their appeal.

The name “agate” refers to the Ancient Greek name for the Dirillo River in Sicily, Ἀχάτης (Achates), where the crystal was first discovered. It was extensively used in hardstone carving during ancient times, having been utilized in the making of various ornamental objects such as jewelry, inkstands, seals, and so on. Back then, it was believed to possess the power to ward off evil spirits and heal severe injuries, such as snake bites and scorpion stings.

Today, agate is still widely used to create beads for agate bracelets, earrings, and necklaces, cabochons, and carvings. With its rating of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, ability to retain a high polish, and natural resistance to chemical attack, agate is also widely used in a variety of industrial applications.

In crystal healing, enthusiasts believe agate to be a stone that represents grounding and healing. It is said to give off a comforting energy; looking upon it can have a soothing effect. These qualities make it the perfect choice for someone who may be struggling with their emotions, or suffering from anxiety and/or depression.

Being a grounding stone it also tempers flights of fancy. Agate is said to possess the ability to keep its wearer’s feet firmly on the ground and remain clear-headed and realistic.
